Any reason why the alfine Arkose would be a bad idea as an everyday stealth commuter?
Heavy and it is build on a 2017 frameset compare to the other 2018 Arkose, still a decent bike.
I'd look at the Arkose X instead, lighter frame, and a much more servicable drivetrain, the downside is that it's a 2017 frameset.
2017 Arkose frames are the same as 2018, aside from a 3rd bottle mount on 2018s.
