Preference is still definitely for steel though, even if alu options might be cheaper. I won't be doing any XC racing so I'm less concerned with lightest/fastest setups. Durable, comfortable, capable.
The Cotic does look pretty sexy though:

"Exclusive Cotic Designed Reynolds 853 34.9mm seat tube"
Does that mean non-standard, pain in the arse to find later on, seatposts?
What about Di2? How much is it going to cost me to keep smashing Di2 RDs off?
