The biggest difference you will notice is just how much quicker and effortlessly smoother shifting on the front chainrings is, even under load.

Automatic trimming is great
Pros: High Quality, Good Fit
"The setup for the derailleur is simple and the automatic trimming as you go up and down the rear cassette means there is no chain rub. The sound the motor makes as it shifts from the small chainring to the big is very sweet."

"Outstanding! The fit and finish is fantastic and the shifting performance is incredible, until you've tried Di2 you won't believe how good front shifting can be, you won't keep from laughing the first time you try it!"
