Quick question, what are Di2 latex covers?

They are just for guiding those Di2 cables through the frame and reduce friction and play between cables and frame on the inserts. They used to be included by TT as i read, some users said they arent anymore.

1. Yep ypu need a 140 to 160mm adapter
2. Idk
3. yep
4. no issue
5. Should be enough

Thanks!

So for the first question: The adapter for the fork comes in the box, the adapter for the frame should be a standard shimano adapter, correct? Hopefully no need for expensive genuine special things.

Hey yall,

i did it and bought a x68 in green.

i finally went trough all 132 pages to this frame and there are some questions occuring:

1. I want to ride 160f and 160rear rotors with a shimano Di2 brake. Is there a need for extra adapters for fork and/or frame?
2. How long did it take to order, paint and ship to Germany? Rose told me, the longest would be end of April. I this reliable?
3. Is it worth it to buy those Di2 latex covers for the cables in advance?
4. How is the fork quality now in 2026? Any issues here?
5. Got a new 116 link shimano chain sitting here, should there be more links for a 52/36 and 11-34 casette with a size 58 frame?

Thank you guys, appreciate any reply!
