This is what we use, both are a few years old... maybe better stuff out there.
Taillight is very bright, many light pattern, rechargeable: Cygolite Hotrod
Headlight is bright, flood/spot/flashing modes, plus flashing red side indicators: Fenix BC21R its discontinued though... really like Fenix lights.
Ultimate for tail, would be the Garmin Varia RTL515, which combines radar to warn the rider and flash the taillight for drivers.

It is for FOX 34 Step Cast forks, so I don't know if it will fit the stock fork.
Thanks man! Yeah it was really hard to find something that would fit on an aero post. This is the one: LEZYNE Road Caddy Bicycle Seat Bag, Small, Water Resistant, Easy Access, Bike Caddy Bag https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00NAR0U4Q/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_kemgFbWB0E7SR
I’m trying to find a really good bike for my city.
I want a light & fast bike but also one that has a little bit of suspension upfront. I do like the fact that the future shock 2.0 can be locked off when you’re on solid roads.
I was considering buying a used Specialized Roubaix (19.2lbs/8.7kg) and adding the Redshift ShockStop stem.

I’m also considering having to spend about 2X as much and getting a new Diverge or Sirrus because they have the really nice future shock 2.0 system.
Anybody have any additional ideas or feedback?
I’m trying to find a really good bike for my city. Budget is up to $3k but would prefer $1,500.

It’s quite cheap but it’s actually not bad at all. It’s made of metal and is reassuringly strong.
>I have a 2019 sirrus (not sure how different from the newer frame if at all) that I put 43s on a couple years ago, and I ground the frame a tiny bit at the front of the rear tire to clear them. YMMV but I've put a lot of miles on it since then without issue. These are the tires I have. Nothing fancy, they have held up just fine. > >Gravel King SK 700 x 32 cm Folding Tire https://www.amazon.com/dp/B071SDYF4S/

I have two Bikehand stands. I bought another bike a couple weeks ago and asked them to remove the kickstand in the shop. Bought another Bikehand stand right away. Really recommend them. Holds the bike well, super easy to get in and out of the stand, and has a very small footprint.

Pure Chinese goodness. Everyone said they’d explode and I’d die in spectacular fashion, but they’ve been solid with 0 issues.

I also had creaks right when I first bought my 2020 stumper. I bought some of this fork boost and it pulled a bunch of gunk outta my dropper and stopped the creaks. this stuff is awesome and its eco friendly ;) https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07DQHCQVX/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I found this which I had hoped would work well enough.... LBS told me that I had the wrong axel and that it wouldn't work. So back to the drawing board. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01JRHK5HO/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I pick mine up tomorrow, same color and model!

I've had this phone holder for about two years on my current bike, and I love it. Recently bought another one for my wife. I think the price is right for what it is. I wouldn't recommend this if you're doing heavy trail riding, but for street cruises and occasional trails, I think its great!
That’s a good point. I didn’t realize that. I have (what I believe is) a pretty good saddle, the PRO Stealth Road Bicycle Saddle... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MU6S13A?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
So I’m not sure if that would be worth it to just sell that and get the power pro and the Aerofly 2 handle bars. First world problems lol
These are the exact ones that I have and they’re great quality by SRAM, and very affordable.
I’ve been thinking about it for my Sirrus X 2.0, but I usually just lean it up against something. My Fuse also doesn’t have one, but I wouldn’t put one on a mountain bike anyway.
There’s a mount on the alloy frame, not sure about the carbon frame. You could try one like this, and just be gentle when tightening, as not to crush the frame..
Awesome thanks! I just ordered the Lezyne Road Caddy, it’s small but allegedly sits snugly under the saddle and only attaches to the saddle rails. I almost ordered the Stix, but have heard mixed reviews (which you’ve confirmed) so I’m still looking. Lezyne also makes this strip light, and they say it fits an aero seat post, but, it’s $40...
I ran into the same problem with my 2020. What I use now is a Specialized Zee Cage II With Tool water bottle holder, then a storage container that is basically a large water bottle. This one on amazon I can fit my pump, levers, a tube, and some other stuff easily. So far its solid. I did get a pump mount that fits between the water bottle cage as well but everything fits so well I haven't installed it. This makes cleaning after a ride easy and I don't have to worry about my rear wheel hitting a saddle bag on the decent.
Since I use a camel pack its not a big deal for water. Now I have room in my small pack for knee pads that I don't want to wear on the climb up.
