Ok good idea.
Here's the story of my bike:

First, I got myself a frame, a fork, some wheels, brakes, drivetrain and a whole bunch of other stuff.



Then I put all of it together in my still very basic garage.



I loved it how it was then, but it needed some improvements still, so I added an aerobar and lights: dual electron nano 9's as headlights and electron blinking led lights for visibility.



Then I swapped the pedals for A530's, got myself some racewheels for doing high speed road riding and got a second bottlecage. I also changed the adjustable stem for a rigid 30° stem because the adjustable one creacked too much when really hitting it hard.



The last thing I changed were the grips ... they were too loose so I got myself some ritchey grips which can be secured with tiny bolts and I placed the old grips on my aerobar, which turned out to be a great addition to it.
