So much this.
Also @jb buy the Hope servicing tools - it is a simple set of drifts for getting bearings in and out and costs about 1/10 the price of the Chris King service tools and will ensure easy maintenance. They have great videos on how to maintain their equipment and when you call them for help you are likely to get the guy from the videos talk you through things on the phone.
This is making progress now that Bespoke has gone and I've finally decided what I want.
Have decided on hydro Di2 instead of mechanical hydro just cause it's good. I also didn't like the shape Shimano's mechanical hydro hoods.
Also decided on (probably) Hope hubs - I'd like CK but even on trade they're just too expensive. They're still £509 even after discount! Hope are less than half of that...
Now just need to decide on paint... fork will stay black.
