because di2 is awesome......or not....its up to you to justify to yourself the cost difference for di2...When I got my Domane with di2, it was a gift to myself and I did not care about the cost....I wanted it. I have put 2 kids through college, spent un-godly amount of money on a arts and craft room for my wife and I decided it was my turn....screw it, I want it, I am buying it.

you should learn to embrace change, and mock it's failings every step of the way.
