looked a bit dorky in all honesty
this is my fear. definitely doesn't seem to be the done thing at all
Wouldn't surprise me if you love Di2 so much that you decide to stop riding the Giant altogether :-P
I initially had some elaborate plan to move the Di2 group over to the giant and then run my mech DA group (or get a 105 disc group) for the fairlight but we'll see how it goes. can't imagine not riding the giant/similar carbon bike in summer. just really like the stiffness/speed they offer - perfect for quick blasts after work (when my stupid job allows)

That expander bung should be an allen bolt inside there, Swed. Just lefty loosey it and it the bung should contract, allowing you to remove it. Just don't loosen it too much otherwise the lower wedge will fall off from the knurled sleeve.
Wait till you get used to the 28s. Especially for the winter. I just went from 30c to 28c and it was super weird. But after a few rides I'm used to the different tyre size. 28s are really great. Learn to love the extra cush. You're not going to go any slower and you will be more comfortable and have a larger contact patch with the ground and thus more grip when cornering.
I did the tool bottle on my 3rd cage mount but ultimately returned to a saddle pack. It's just more convenient and it looked a bit dorky in all honesty.
Can't go wrong with PDW Full Metal Fender's IMO. Or just SKS Longboard's. Best mudguard coverage, but a bit plastic looking.
PS looks super! Love the orange. Wouldn't surprise me if you love Di2 so much that you decide to stop riding the Giant altogether :-P
