- no need to heat seal connections
- Wiring kit is more adjustable
- ability to add more shifting points
Mind you they are not interchangeable in any way. The UDi2 will work with the new 9070 Di2

I was under the impression that the shifters have the required spare port and at the momment a remote style shifter was available.
Not being funny, I don't own the system as yet but it what i want to run on my new build.

DA Di2 is a simple momentary switch, Ui2 is not.ratter wrote:Why?

I know what they are but you can't just make them like you can with Di2. DA Di2 send s simple pulse down a dedicated wire from each button to the brains. Ui2 sends a different signal type from each button down a wire to the brains. Without knowing the signal type required for each button, and having a method of making it, you can't simply make extra buttons.ratter wrote:heres a link to the satellite shifter

"The satellite shifters first saw use with the sprinters in the ProTour and will soon come to Ultegra."

You original question came across as asking has anyone in the cycling community hacked together some sprint shifters, the answer is no and it isn't easy. Will Shimano do it? Yes they will, once the new DA Di2 comes out the accessories will (should be anyway) be compatible with Ui2.ratter wrote:thanks for the answers, but do you realise the link was for a satellite shifter for Ultegra Di2 not Dura ace? not trying to be argumentative, but believe if they can make a satellite shifter work then they should be able to get sprint shifters working, happy to be corrected

I was not after a hacked version of the sprint shifters or using the satellite shifter as sprint shifters, just wanted to know if anyone had seen any aftermarket companies listing sprint shifters for it.
