Lots of bottle cage options instead of the one lonely generic LBS one.
My favorite for carbon is the Arundel Mandible. My favorite for good looking cheap is the Tacx Tao. It's discontinued, but I found a two pack for the Cinelli.

That bike will be fine with fenders from here. Boulder Bicycle is a dealer, as well.

I also think it's kinda BS Lynskey spec'd it out with FSA, if you bought the full bike and not the frameset. Why would they do that on such a nice frameset? Well, we know why.

Those prices, though.

It's my everyday commuter and occasional hardback/gravel bike. I like a clean bike and hate partial fenders. The saddle is actually my favorite among the three I'm currently using. Maybe I should move it to the trainer. It now has an unsightly gash on the left side from the hit back in January. The cranks are FSA Gossamer junk.

And well-fitted fenders can definitely be sexy.
Don't make me post my Trek again.
I'l do it!

Two seconds on or off, which includes time to find the right spot to touch it without getting dirty.

Oh, I bet and I'm sure they'll last a lifetime (or close enough to it), but still... If it's high quality and something that I need or really want, I'll usually come around after the initial sticker shock.
