Looking for info on Storch, Tune, etc...something unique but not break the bank level.

Needs are stem and post without setback, and bars anatomical mid reach and drop.

Also currently riding a Arion but the boy down low has been feeling tingly lately...anyone have a comparison vs Taupe or Selle Italia w/cutout.

These are going on a nude tubes set with blue tint. :D Hint as to the other threads about a new Serotta on the way.

I've been upgrading my bike lately and here are some suggestions:

PMP seatpost - light, good clamp, good-looking. comes in carbon or ti

Easton EC90 Seatpost - more expensive than the PMP but good post

Ritchey 4-Axis stem is hard to beat - decently priced and light

Bars:

Alloy bars - I would look at Ritchey WCS series or Deda Newton

Carbon - I like my ITM K-sword bars. Winged top and shallow drop and shorter reach. The new Easton EC90 SLX looks nice too but the reach is longer than the ITM

Also switched from an Arione to a toupe on one of my bikes and so far so good. It's definately harder than the fizik but it it pretty comfortable. No major issues yet but time will tell.
