Hi Paul

It's going on an Orbea Orca s105 2012 model. It currently has 105 on it but the shifting is awful, I have a Cannondale Synapse that has 105 and its perfect, The Orbea has been back to the LBS so many times now it was either sell it or upgrade to electronic shifting!

The frame is not Di2 ready so all the wiring is going to have to be surface, I'm not prepared to drill the frame, so I'm going to use the self adhesive cable wiring guides that Shimano sell. I've had a good look around the Internet at other people's bikes who have gone the surface route and I think I can make it look really discreet.

Here's hoping anyway, wish me luck!
