What would make it a bona fide commuter, IMO, would be a dynohub wheel (Supernova even sells some with a Schmidt hub laced to carbon rims, and while they can't send one to me, I could have one made in the US if I really wanted to spend that much), fenders (Crud Roadracers Mk2 FTW), and a rack (I wonder if the rear brake mount is too far down for an Axiom Streamliner to work).

I'm still planning to convert the Bianchi to drop bars, though. I just haven't decided to stick with Shimano ($) or switch to Sram Apex ($$)... or put Sram on the BMC and move its group to the Bianchi ($$$)... or switch both bikes to Sram ($$$$)... or... or....
