Its all personal prefernece. carbon will look good against the black, but the S/S will be harder wearing etc. As for fitting, nope, just as easy IMHO

If you leave your bike outside I wouldn't recommend the carbon. I have a Quill T3 carbon and the sun has stripped the finish on it, it now looks dull on the top but OK on the bottom. I'd go for the S/S oval.

Personally i don't like carbon much, even leaving aside the practicality concerns. And I reckon stainless looks too shiny on the SV. So I'd get a titanium one.
