  • If I bought one of these, what do I need to swap out?

  • From reading the various threads:

    • Cranks (shit and really heavy)
    • Bars/stem (heavy)
    • Seatpost/seat (quick win)
    • Wheels (shit/heavy but maybe not worth it - have 130mm rear spacing)
    • Shifting (gripshift)
    • Brakes, if you have some hydros lying around, otherwise the stock ones are OK apparently

    I'm planning to leave it as stock as possible, but might swap stuff out to get the weight down a bit (bars) or if I have it in the parts bin already (seatpost, seat, cranks, brakes).
