I'm soon to get this bike (http://www.trekbikes.com/us/en/bikes/gary_fisher_collection/g2_hardtails/advance/).
I know a helmet is obvious, but what other things would be good to have at all times on the trail?
I'm also looking at:
Gloves (Not sure what one)
A mount (http://www.amazon.com/Bike-Handlebar-Mount-Magellan-eXplorist/dp/B001EURGYI) for my GPS
I have a golite backpack that I think will accept a bladder.
I guess I need tools and an air pump.
What would you recommend? Is there a good starter kit.
Since the bike is $570 I would like to spend less than $200 for accessories.
Thanks for the help!
