I could be quite happy with that group of parts but I am the type of person that likes to modify and tinker and could go overboard really easy. I doubt the bike holds you back so just enjoy it.
I haven't really worked out a budget yet but I'm guessing maybe around $150 to $200. To be honest I'm pretty happy with the build as it is, it's just the seatpost that irks me. Is it just me or is a 350g seatpost/shim setup a bit excessive?

I gotcha. I'm starting a regimen with a friend next week. Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays - Turnbull Canyon Rd. I figured I've lazed around enough this summer ha.
