Agree, that's why Im sticking with getting my LBS to fit me up. As far as extras were concerned, I was thinking of pedals and possibly a wheel & kevlar tire upgrade. Lights and saddle pouches I can buy cheap online. I already have a saddle pouch with the required tools and tubes on my current bike.
