Ah that's good to know, thanks. I do prefer that the VO are slightly wider and alu over steel, but I guess weight doesn't really matter on a bike like this.
@amey it's great. I would honestly get another one and put guards on it if I had space. It does nearly everything

I completely agree, my out n out full carbon road bike was maybe only 20% better (in my head). For my abilities Checkpoint as a road bike with fast tyres is plenty. UK weather doesent deserve bikes with no guard mounts.
Get some carbon wheels and be done.

From cursory google glance GBs might actually weigh less than a pair of alu VOs.
But it is a matter of 200-300 grams in favour of GB. Nobody listed if they included the hardware.
I have a set of VO, and buying again I would get GB.

I have a set of VO guards, and the way the stays mount the guards can be fiddly when unmounting - which is why I'd go for GBs instead.
