Looking at the original ad, I am reminded that whenever the bike is described as stock or showroom, or original, or like, the seller is clueless and trying to sell the bike as if its a used car. Noting that the op bike, still listed, has non-original handlebar tape and the front brake is disconnected, and the barcon shifters are not originally specced on the bike demonstrates the "non-stock" nature of this particular offering. Not that this has anything to do with the OP's questions, but is simply a warning to newbie buyers...If the seller claims about the bike are in used car terms, they are not any kind of bike expert and it's buyer beware.
