I've looked at wabi's, i like them, but i'm just a huge fan of the threaded styling, no so much threadless. I feel like threadless and classic dont go hand-in-hand. I like the look of that sorta faux threaded stem from velo-orange, but i'd like threadless if possible

scrod, i have some extra saddles, bars, tires, pedals and other random stuff like that, so those will be a quick switch. I'll prob look into some new wheels at some point though. Seems to me like it'd be a solid buy thats a small step up from the bikesdirect stuff.

thanks again for the suggestions guys
