Yep I've gone through the whole thread, lots of helpful info here . Wheel tape was the first out of box upgrade I did. I checked the headset bearings and they seemed to have a a good amount of grease. I attempted to get to the hub bearings but the axles were TIGHT. Perhaps I need to do some research on the subject, I havent messed with wheel hubs very much.
I will definitely go through the bikes again once my upgrades start arriving.
