With the inclusion of Lightning Reflexes you introduce some compatibility issues, and can drop (or at least rethink) your Increase Reflexes spell, and/or the Sustaining Focus.
Yeah, lightning reflexes gives +2 reaction, while increase reflexes gives +1 reaction +1 IP up to +3/+3. I would drop lightning reflexes and keep the spell and sustaining focus. Maybe pick up Focused Concentration, and keep 5 BP for more starting cash.

Well, I don't believe there's an issue here. Increase Reflexes only increases Initiative and IP, while Lightning Reflexes only increases Reaction.

You'd think, but Lightning Reflexes comes with a "screw you" clause. Runner's Companion, p. 98:
