1. What do you wish came with your bike when you bought it? (not components, but accessories)

Chain cleaner, a small quantity of lube, a guide to manufacturer recommendations to things like lube, tires, etc. Basically, give tips to new riders (like myself) who may not know all the little things that you have to care for in a bike. Even a link to GCN's YouTube channel would have been great!

1. What little things are on your bike now that you find convenient?

Quick release at seat post for adjustments without needing allen keys.

1. What little things are missing from your bike that you wish it had

Basic tools. I'm new to biking and don't really have tools (student, just moved out).

1. Are there any aspects of bike design that truly inspire you? Shape (what kind of shape?), paint, logos, etc.?

I like simplistic designs in terms of graphics, logos, and other random text on the frame.

1. Would you have any constructive suggestions for a new company that could create a fanatical following?

Don't look to Apple for their "little things." They're not a successful company for the little things they do, its because of their marketing. Overspend for your marketing.
