  • Yeah the white decal is a bit OTT.
    But the DT's don't seem much better visually. The both brands come on one of the complete bikes from canyon.

    So I'm still confused.
    Can you take the QR out and just replace it with the through axel?
    Does it require any other parts?

  • The wheel decals are easily removable most of the time. All the otp wheels listed above come with adapters for 12/100 front and 12/142 rear

    Compromising on wheels is going to be more noticeable performance wise but have to agree on the hydros. Maybe you can get 105 with the ultegra level shifters?

  • Thanks. Appreciate your help people.

  • Yeah this is it havevto make compromises as spent a big portion of my budget getting the frameset and colourway I wanted.
    The shifters/ brake seem to be the main cost of the groupset.
    Plus I'd like the chainset to be Ultegra if I'm getting Ultegra levers...

  • I have Ultegra hydro levers with 105 all else. Ridden the same bike with Ultegra mechs and cranks, couldn't tell a difference (maybe 100 grams lighter?)
