François Bailly-Maître and the BMC Trailfox TF01 get Shimano XTR Di2
While Shimano's 11sp cassette doesn't offer the ratio's that SRAM has, the thing that gives Shimano the leg up is the ability to run a double or triple ring. This gives a much wider range of gearing than SRAM, and the weight penalty is minimal. When I chose SRAM over Shimano for my 11sp, I went with SRAM specifically for the 10/42 option. If i had known then what I know now, I would have gone Shimano...2x may not be accepted by all the kool enduro kids, but Im not super human and I need as much gear as I can get!
On a side note, I saw Di2 on Kyle Warner's Marin 'enduro' bike three weeks ago.

AKA is an rc car company that makes tires and other things for rc cars...AKA tire glue (CA glue) is amazing stuff. I have personally used it to squeeze one more ride out of a Schwalbe tire losing the side lugs on multiple occasions. www.raceaka.com
