The first addition to consider are bar-end:
Universal Cycles -- Bar Ends
The second would be tires.
The third would be gearing.
What tires and what gearing depend on where and how you like to ride.
Often original equipment saddles and pedals are cheap, throw-away items. The saddle and pedals are better than most on the DS series. You might upgrade to clipless pedals and cycling shoes at some point.
