The stem/quill




I put some money into it, yet I got to ride it as it was and then made the upgrades as I "realized" I wanted. Moreover, I think I still came out way better than plunking $1300 for a bike I may or may not want to change to exactly what I want.
Of course, for about the same total cost you could've gotten one of these (with the Sub15 wheels, too, but not including taxes and shipping)
