The difference in weight between the shifters is impressive. Begs the question if they purposefully made the mechanical version heavier! 🤐 | |

| Jul 3, 2017 at 7:47 | comment | added | Ryan Flaherty | Do you mean the weights of components? If so, these are from the Shimano 2017 trade sales and support manual... ST-R9100 365g (pair) vs ST-R9150 230g (pair). FD-R9100 69g vs FD-R9150 104g. RD-9100 158g vs RD-R9150 204g. So the Di2 mechs are heavier but overall the Di2 shifters/mechs are lighter by 54g. | |
