Ellsworth with new Shimano XT Di2

[Gadgetplayer]

First of all, since my last post on the Ellsworth Epiphany 27.5+ my love for this bike has grown.  I use the 27.5+ or the 29 inch wheel sets interchangeably, which makes this one of the most versatile bikes I have ever owned.  Ellsworth is one of the few that offer the 3 inch 27.5+ and 29ers on the same frame. For serious technical, nothing beats the 3 inch 27.5+ wheels, whereas for faster, less technical tracks, the 29 inch wheels are great. 

 

However, the most important point is that riding this bike is like riding a lounge suite compared to some of my other trail bikes.  It is just that comfortable.  No aches or pains after a long day in the saddle.

 

To top it all, I just installed the new Shimano XT Di2 on the Ellsworth Epiphany - 2x11 gear train.  The difference with the new XT Di2 versus the earlier version of the XTR Di2, is that the new XT Di2 has bluetooth built in, which means all settings are now controlled directly from an iOS or Android app on your mobile phone.  Even though I have 2x11, I only use one shifter and the down and upshifting gear sequence is configured directly from the mobile phone app.

 

Lovely stuff!
