I think that's worth noting as it may eat in to the value of the hubs substantially. The freehubs run approximately $120 CDN, plus another $15 end cap. Maybe at that point We Are One or whoever comes out ahead. You'd think Trek is planning on selling enough of these to justify at least offering them with 1. no freehub option so you can order end cap and freehub a la carte or 2. more options because they're going to have hundreds and hundreds of these wheelsets across their three North American warehouses.
Personally I don't mind because I'm running an XD driver on 2 of my 3 shimano setups, but it'd be nice to give people the choice without having them drop a non-trivial amount of extra cash.
Do these come with all 6 pawls installed already? If so, FINALLY. I have a set of line pro 40's on my silly hardtail and that wheelset was quite a bit more money and I had to shell out to fill the freehub in.
