Thanks everyone. I hope this bike will put me in great shape, better than my running. I hadn't really bought anything for a while, so I thought it was worth it to spend some money now to get the bike I want. Plus I consider it somewhat of an investment since the bike should retain a lot of value, at least for some time to come.

I do have a seat bag, but did not put in on for the picture. I got this one: http://www.amazon.com/Topeak-Aero-We...7641044&sr=8-1


Now could somebody please explain what's wrong with my pump? Before buying it, I even searched BF and Topeak Morph was at the top of the recommendations (archives). I am assuming you guys use this: http://www.amazon.com/Lezyne-Road-Dr...7640982&sr=8-1
