Those H2O cages are cheap ones from my LBS, I think I paid $10 or $20 for them. I do like the look, I think they fit the bike's vibe well.
About the smooth ride - +1, and I can absolutely see why people like these frames for gravel bikes.

It's a Medium frame. I kept the spacers they way they came, and I'll probably play around with the stem height after the New Year. And I'm 55...my seat-is-higher-than-my-bars days are pretty much over. I like to be comfy.
