Fenders fashionable? Fisher's "Vanishing" fender mounts

Thanks to Eric S who mentioned this this am. Nice to see makers producing race bikes with room and attachment points for fenders.
If a 'cross bike isn't in your plans (the better option so you can get the fun and skill benefits as well as room for bigger tires and fenders), this looks like a great idea to me. A full-on race bike, but suitable for fenders when the weather turns, or it becomes the bad weather bike.

Hey, how about a cross bike with these mounts so you can look Euro cool at races, but still keep your coffee buddies clean? Do the cross models have these? Can't tell from their website.
