Gorgeous bike! You must be pretty short, pretty limber, or both.

Looks like you could switch to a non-setback saddle, no?

I don't know. Remember that there's a difference in where women tend to sit on saddles (we're pretty much right at the back on our sit bones). That's probably why it seems slammed forward.

That has been addressed. Aero is nice. It won't make so much a difference in pack, but I think it looks cool.

ENVE SES. I posted about them. 38cm at hoods, 44cm at plugs. Perfect for the modern think of narrow AERO and bars not hitting arms in sprints. FSA makes similar now.
Also - junior likes a reverse wrap for best drop handling and no tape on top.
Normal wrap starts at plugs. These start at top. Also tried start at top, reverse around hoods.

The other things maybe of interest. No metal cables, housing brought in for aero position, Di2 computer tucked in.
13#2oz with DA 9000 electronic including pedals. Wheel set complete with glued tires, cassette, heavier skewers is now 1870 (was 1740 with Ti Skewers and light tires).
