I just set my SON hub up. I have an eDelux attached to a Velo Orange front rack, and I run the wire for the taillight from the headlight, down the downtube, along the chainstay and fender stay and up to the light. I did use a few black zip ties. I think two on the downtube, two on the chainstay, and one on the fender stay. I think the fender stay is safer to run the wire along because it isn't going to be abraded by road objects.
Also, be sure you have enough free play in the wire at the headset to wrap around when you turn the handlebars all the way to the side. Paul B.

Do any of you have good advice on how to wire everything up neatly? I'm going to mount my headlight on the fork using the Gino mount. Most of the pictures I've seen of front light wiring involve Zip ties or plastic packing tape. More difficult is wiring the taillight. Originally I had considered a battery-operated taillight, but I found a great Luxor hammered- aluminum headlight that, with a little cleaning and a few minor modifications, works great. Perhaps down the seat-tube, through a small hole in the fender, and then some sort of glue inside the fender? This still leaves the problem of how to attach the wiring to the downtube. I've been hunting online for pictures of good installations, so if you know of one, please let me know.
