Yes it appears so unless you want to take your brake hoses off / apart and re-bleed them for an update. I have the Ultegra 6770 di2 10 speed too and never updated. It's over 10 years old and still works flawlessly like day 1.
@@pedalpowercyclingI would append this. You can unplug the FD and get a junction and a cable and run it as an extension to the shifters in order to update the firmware on there.
Did you end up purchasing a 105 di2 set to install yourself? Since the groupset is still new I haven't had to update the levers yet but I can imagine it'll be a little more difficult updating the levers when the time comes because the levers are connected to the brake hoses, which are routed internally through the frame. . . If I have to take those hoses off then another re-bleed may be necessary.
@@pedalpowercyclingyes, i finally upgraded my bike to 105 di2 back in April, spent around 900USD for the full groupset. i ended up buying an extra di2 cable and a 2 port junction called EW-JC302, all you need to do is temporarily disconnect the front derailleur di2 cable and use the EW-JC302 and the extra di2 cable to connect it to the shifters you want to update the firmware.
Great deal!! Mine was over $1000 for the group set. Thanks for the info on the extension cable. It's much easier that way than to mess with the brake hoses.
Brother thanks for the video . Just know your the best !
Thanks for the kind comment.
That's a very useful video, thanks very much..
You're welcome, thanks for watching and for the kind comment!
thank you bro, this video helps me)))
You're welcome!
so once on the bike you’ll need a 3rd cable just to do updates with b/c you can’t bring the shifters to the connectors anymore

@@mrflibble244 Yes that is an option as well, but you'll still need a 3rd cable, in this case an extension.
Thank you!!!
You're welcome! Hope this helps you install yours, or helps you decide if you want it or not.
what a journey, now i might not be so afraid to buy the 105 di2 and install it myself, still is so stupid that you can't wireless update the levers.

Now, we know how much cyclist were able to pair their di2)
