The store told me they weren't supposed to sell it yet. When I was ordering it, the salesman pulled up his ordering page to show me what colors were available, and the yellow bike was there. Sold!!

ive yet to go to the LBS to check the legitimacy of this, however.

Before I post a pic, (frame is resting uncomfortably on the stand), would anyone be able to take a pic, explain or link to the grommet/bushing on the chainstay that acts as a housing-guide for the internally routed cable. Mine was missing.
Not sure if this is something I can easily remedy or I require that specific part for accurate shifting.
TIA

It is actually the number 2 reason...the pedals being a platform for neutralizing weight distribution/falling forward. No. 1 reason is whether the saddle is level 'where we sit on it' which is the rear section. If you put a magazine under the back legs of the chair you are sitting in right now its the same thing...your weight will shift forward. If the saddle is tilting forward like yours is as shown, then your weight will be falling forward. The reason why many choose your saddle tilt however it due to perineal pressure. So here is an interaction. The saddle pushed back on its rails is a kluge for the saddle being tilted forward. They are related. The farther a saddle is positioned more rearward on the bike, the more bothersome the nose of the saddle is to the perineum. So the solution is...push the saddle more forward and then level the rear of saddle. This way you can tilt your pelvis in the drops with close to a flat back and not put too much weight on your balls....which is what the nose does if your saddle is too far back.
This isn't discussed much in fit literature but wanted to share this dynamic as I believe its quite important for a proper fit.

You mention "tire". Tire could be misshaped, warped. Take your cue from a better "mark" such as the brake track. (obviously w/wheel you know is in TRU).
Also as simple as this sounds, fully loosen QR, remove all tension, readjust and re-tighten. (It's not that uncommon for the axle to be pitched. During group-ride flat repairs, sometimes in the rush to re-install a rear-wheel, the axle is not perfectly seated).
