Presumably going for a more audax-y geometry would make it more future-self-proof? As long as it's comfortable to ride over distance, you can tweak the saddle and stem to take into account reduced flexibility in later years.

Maybe. I think people should build the bike they want to ride now, without compromises- and if that bike isn't what they want in five years then so be it.
My Criterium is lovely- a thing of beauty. It's also 26 years old and representative of thinking and technology from 20 years ago (Kleins were always ahead of their time).
Change is constant, take the best of today and accept it as that- dont make decisions based on a 20 year planning horizon that may not do you any favours.

In the bike for life thing, if the bike is still in the same shape in 20 years does that mean that you will also?
