At least you won't have to worry with Sram's FD throwing the chain - that comes with a chain guard

That frame looks pretty decent, but for some reason those wheels and tires look heavy to me.
I would go with Rival and maybe a Force crank. Then with the money you save you can get some decent hoops.

stole your bike
No need for a new gruppo, it's a single speed. I would however look into getting a carbon fiber basket for the front.

I hear a 14 speed IGH calling for that one. Though I suppose you could make do with 11 speed campy if you have to.
