I just received my Wilier Zero.7. There is only one hole in the seat tube. It looks like there is no hole for the charging port.

They might be charging it through a derailleur... extra charge line going to the head unit, simple plug in port on a derailleur.. kind of like charging an RC airplane, the switch has 3 lines off of it.. on to the battery, one to the receiver, one to a charge line.

Campy better do something though to stay in the Electronic war ... I know 2 2016 models are non EPS compliant.. new Cannondale EVO seattube is 25.4mm.... Specialized Venge Vias is internal seatpost battery... its only gonna keep going more weird shapes from here on in Id guess!!

I should back pedal on the Specialized... I called them this afternoon, and they said the EPS battery WILL fit the downtube in the bottle cage mount... he more or less implied be ready for a fight setting things up, but it works....

Hopefully the new V3 battery deletes this....
