I\u2019ve been running Shimano\u2019s latest Ultegra Di2 groupset for nearly two years now and the new SRAM Force AXS for more than six months.<\/p>

Given that, I know both groupsets inside and out and I\u2019m ready to pit them against each other before declaring a winner once and for all.<\/p>

Before we dive into this clash of the titans, though, let\u2019s set the scene.<\/p>

Shimano Ultegra Di2 R8100<\/a> and SRAM Force AXS<\/a> are the second-tier electronic road bike groupsets<\/a> from the two biggest names on the market.<\/p>

Both have been updated recently and offer all the cutting-edge shifting and braking tech anyone could ever want.<\/p>

Best of all, though, they\u2019re available at slightly more reasonable prices than you\u2019d pay for the brand\u2019s flagship groupsets<\/a>, Shimano Dura-Ace Di2 R9200<\/a> and SRAM Red eTap AXS<\/a>.<\/p>

However, if I could only have one on my bike, which would it be? Let\u2019s find out.<\/p>
