Welcome and a great looking bike ;) The thought never occurred to me, but electric groupsets or full internal routing should really simplify the bar mounted accessories management, i.e. no interference between lights and housing.

Wheels look great and they are an Australian brand so even better.
First time seeing them on this forum

Very nice build. That brissy?
Those fly12/6 looks so much better than the older generation I have.

Also considering decadence wheels.. What's the weight on them as a set? If you have it.

Yes they are an Australian brand, located in Sydney. DeCadence is the better model using a different hub and are lighter. To be honest they are very well priced.

Yes, they have been great wheels. Set and forget. Light at 1285gms. Good service too. The only thing I've had to change was bearings. I now have ceramics.

It sure is Mt Gravatt in Brissy! I weighed the Cadens at 1285gms with rim strips preinstalled.

Nice bike, I really like the proportions of the smaller H1 frames :thumbup:

Small detail: You should use the supplied carbon piece from Trek to mount the FD and not the Shimano metal one. Otherwise, if overtorqued, you could shatter the carbon FD-mount/hanger
