Should I jump on this? 

Just need a frame to put this on...

you just go for it. It's close to the price of a 11 speed mechanical Ultegra.

eRX is also on sale wtf. I wanted to buy another one but I already have eR9 and just waiting for the wheelset.

I would choose ER9 over ERX though. Given how fragile the carbon shifters are.

Yeah, kicking myself a bit, but alas.

My local Shimano dealer here in the US is having a sale on 105 Di2 12sp groupsets for around $1000 usd. Not as a cheap as ER9/ERX, but in less than a year's time I would have forgotten about the extra $500 in exchange for running a proven and reliable groupset.

You mean.... the RX12 mechanical mini groupset is almost the same price.

Ok, I ordered the eR9 as well, paid 393€ on Aliexpress. I guess there is going to be a lot of beta testers in ~two weeks.

You guys are really buying this stuff even when youtubers known for loving Chinese stuff gave it a red card?

I will also buy a 105 di2

Is there any way just to get the 105 Di2 shifters, calipers and the FD/RD derailleur only? You can cut weight going with an Ultegra cassette/crankset or go with an aftermarket setup.

Yes.

Been lurking on this thread for a minute. Thanks for sharing the 80s designer store! The 1035 code doesnt work in USA but i found another code that did $30 off on top of the $10 that was already off. Came out to $450... Cant wait for it to get here and i'll post up about my experience with it when it does!

Yep. I just picked the shit I wanted and bought them from all random places.

Merlin, Amazon, some other random joints. Worked out way cheaper to get separates. Was planning to mix/match shimano and ltwoo but it turns out ltwoo is utter garbage. Ended up with

105 fd/rd/crankset. Good cash savings, similar performance and weight. 105 rd has same internals as DA/ultegra. Have more faith in 105 cranks vs ultegra.

Ultegra shifters and cassette. Wanted top buttons n satellites without faffing with wires to a battery) and cassette has good weight savings for the cost. Servo wave is nice vs my 105 that doesn't have it, too, but whatever.

GRX brakes (same as 105/ultegra)

DA rotors (look coolest and same price)

Made my own satellite shifters for tops n drops for like 30bucks

This website provides 105 di2 parts in OEM packages:

https://www.bike-components.de/en/s/?keywords=105+di2+OEM

RD/FD+shifters+crankset for 595€ [you still need the battery and the cables though which adds 240€].

They had an offer where the complete Groupset was only 769€. I should have jumped on it.

I think you are missing 1 shifter for that price...

190+190+132+67 = about 580 € for shifters, brakes an FD end RD without crank
