Seems like an unnecessary feature. Why not chuck em in a bag or tape them to the frame?
I’m guessing it’s because the bike weighs 11.5kg they’re assuming that spokes will be a wear’able item like brake pads....
Or that it’s another way of justifying the exorbitant price given “it’s a nice colour” has run out of road
They're an annoying shape to pack in soft bag and bend easily. Only adds a few grams to the frame set weight and the space isn't useful for anything else. Why not?
