What Carbon Cages? (yes it is stupid)

Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Serfas. Light, cheap as CF goes, and most importantly they hold a bottle securely.

Arundel. I have them on my Orbea and my Trek, they work great no rattle. Love the Orca by the way white bar tape looks good. Arundel guys out of Fort Worth, great Texas connection!

I would really like to have an Orbea Orca or Onix bike. Nice bike! You might actually want to use bright accents for bottle cages, like orange or some sick magenta.

Forte Theta carbon cages. They're not "chic" in terms of name brand(as your bike is), but they're carbon, they do their job, 25 grams per cage and they're on sale for $20!
