Pretty sure this was a WHILE ago haha. So since then I've built the bike up fully, as well as swapped a few parts I was unhappy with. Right now I think the build is somewhere north of 1500... which is crazy, but since then it's been my main bike that I love riding. But for $190 you could grab a set of Velocity Deep Vs from velomine which I had for a while and loved, or you can splurge a bit which and spend $235 for a set of H+Son Archetypes which I have now and I love.

Also my Stem was 40$ from Leader, however I splurged on the saddle which I am ridiculously happy with is the Fizik Arione Saddle which can be found on Retro-gression. I love that saddle and even though it was $125, my butt and my bike thank me for that purchase.

Best of luck to you and your bike!

PS. If you'd like I'll add a picture of my bike how it currently sits, and I'll try to link how it was around last spring (should be on my pedal room).
