Saddle: Selle Italia cx zero
Bottle cage: Tune
Bottle: Speedvagen
Quick release: Tune AC14
Speed and Cadence: Wahoo Blue SC
Magnet: Carbonice Starker Heinrich Tachomagnet gold

Hi Arthuro,
Welcome to the forum. This is a great bike and a lot of the tuning is already done for you. In your first post you mentioned that the Tune bottle cage isn´t working for you. How come? did you know that with those cages you need to use the conical bottles from Tacx? if the cage then grips to tightly smear some wax on the inside or undo one bolt a bit and mount that part of the cage bit askew.
You made this into a great machine, maybe think about changing out the tubs for something more reasonable for road riding.
