It has the necessary holes, they sell the complete bike with DI2

Exactly as with the real SL8, the FD cable port is behind the FD hanger

Hi, I'm sending you photos and a video of the tantan sl8

Thx for sharing your frame

Request Could you Show or Film the Inside of The Frame?
 
wanted to ask if your or anyone here might be able to show or film the inside of their frame and possibly share a video of it? Ideally, using a camera or phone that can capture the interior details.

Unfortunately, I missed the chance to do this with my own frame because it was already fully assembled, and I didn’t have the tools to open it up. I’m really curious to see what it looks like inside—whether it’s to check the build quality, cable routing, or just out of general interest.

If anyone could share this, I’d be really grateful! It might even be helpful for others who are wondering the same.

The only source we have is this video and but unfortunately, the details are quite minimal and don’t give a clear picture of everything I’m curious about.

Hey guys, I'm sourcing everything I need to build the bike.

I have a question regarding the rear caliper adapter for the 160mm rotor. What length bolts are needed for it?
Also, those of you who built it up already, were you missing anything from the accessories that came with the frame? I'd like to have everything on hand when the frame comes.

I keep reading these questions. How much would it cost shimano to ship enough bolts in the 1st place? the ltwoo groups come with every bolt length under the sun, for eg. when you order a group from them, you get all the bolts, all the adaptor plates for pretty much any situation, and all the cables, charger and so on. Their RDs break, but at least groups are easy to install.
Given the size of the bolts, btw, you can probably find them in any DIY store, they should cost virtually nothing.
Fast on the flat. And nowhere else.
