Generally I think only the Di2 cables can go fully-internal. It’s part of why the fully-integrated bikes are so expensive; there’s no 105 version.

"For your big, stupid rides"
That's really sweet, an aero bike that's advertised as able to take fenders? I wonder what the mounting method is, if there are hidden mounts on the inside of the frame or what. That would be incredible to be able to run real full coverage metal fenders, and if it looks like there's enough clearance in the front with the 30mm tires that you could maybe fit 28mm under them.

Your assumptions are as good as mine. It didn’t come with a removable bridge. I just saw a section for fenders in my owners manual. I don’t plan on using them anytime soon.

Hrm. I don’t look as closely at Trek as you. My guess is it’s a matter of the nature of the routing and whether Cervelo can accommodate gentle enough bends.

Interesting to see that the direct mount rim brakes are roller cams! Very clever ones at that.

Another thread reminded me of the temptation to MUP race this morning - it truly was a test. Some guy on a Motobecane with aero bars and a flappy jersey made a show of passing me while I was noodling along in z1. Well, I think that he tried to give me the look, but maybe I'm projecting. In any event, if ever there was a prime candidate for a MUP soul-crushing, this was he. But I resisted and rode my ride.
Was it a BikesDirect Motobecane or an old one, fabriqué en France?

Edit: hidden fender mounts, too.

I just got home from a lunch ride. During said ride, I made a left with about 50 yards of room in front of a group of riders. Rode about three miles and had to stop to text one of my employees back. One of the riders caught up and asked me why I didn’t slow down so he could grab my wheel....
