I really want to get the Roval Rapide bars because my arms always hit the bars during a sprint before, and they seemed to fix that sort of issue with these new ones. Does anyone know if the ENVE SES Aero bars are any good in this regard?

Curiosity question for people assembling several bikes for others: what would be a percentage of sl7 users having to buy zero setback seatposts?

It boggles my mind why can't brands allow people to chose their preferred setup.

I agree. Frame sets at this price should allow choice of seatpost style and stem length.

In my case it is also due to the waste associated with it. It's a frame specific component that is kept in a drawer for eternity. It's a waste of resources.

I understand you. I have an 80mm stem just wasting away in my drawer that came with my 49 cm frameset that I know I can't sell. A waste of money and materials.

When I bought my frame only; they offered to swap stem or seat post; stem was fine and I had already ordered a Dario seat post.

Where I buy my bikes (SBikes Belgium) they swap the seat post, stem and handlebars for no additional costs. I know other places where you need to buy it. I find that crazy when you buy a bike that already cost around 14000 euro's that you need to give around +-1000 euro extra (if you need al those extra parts).
I know BMC has changed that principle that when you order a bike/frameset that it comes with a standard one. With BMC you can know configure the stem length and handlebar width.
