Nice bike, but personally i would get the head tube cut down, and ditch the saddle bag.

Going to cut down the head tube, it's just a case of getting round to it. She's my only built up bike at the moment and I'd have to give her up to the LBS for a few days to get it done. As it's also my commuter that's a toughie.

I like having a saddle bag because is means my kit is always there and I don't have to move tools etc when I'm commuting. Also, because I carry a rucksack on the commute I really enjoy the feeling of having nothing on my back on the weekend.

I swap the wheels out for Hope Pro3 RS-Monos but other than that she's my spring / summer commuter. I do 200 miles a week commuting and then manage about 60 miles every other week with the club. I love riding this bike so I don't see why I shouldn't ride it as much as I can.

I'm going to build up a Genesis Equilibrium for the autumn / winter commuter / club runner and then I've got a belt / afline / disc Civia Bryant for proper winter commuting.

I really don't like the seat post, but that's not important as it's not my bike!

Otherwise, very, very nice

Very nice bike, I've just built up my new "best" bike and when the weathers nice I commute on it too.

Cutting the steerer is a piece of pi55 mate. Just hold the fork on a solid surface, clamp the stem to where you need to cut so you make a straight cut and invest in a decent hacksaw. Just triple check your measurements!

Cheers.

I've cut alu and and steel steerers before, I just don't trust myself with carbon!

Yeah I know what you mean. Just deep breaths and take it slow, no different really.
