    What's a bidon?
    What's a pretaped tub look like?
    I've still got flat pedals is that ok?

    Bidon is a water bottle.

    Pretaped tub is a tubular tyre that has tape (rather than glue) to stick to the rim easily in case of a puncture.

    Yes, but swap them for clipless soon 😉

    Tape is celeste blue, commonly used by Bianchi bikes.

    Thanks guys! Yes tape and bag are both artifacts from the seller. I took it on a short jaunt yesterday and I’m amazed at how efficient the transfer of power is from the pedals to the wheels. This is the first carbon frame I’ve used so it’s eye-opening.

    Yes the light blue tape will soon be departing!
