Brakes - you need to stop
Foot retention - toe clips/straps, or clipless, etc
Seat Height vs. Bar Height - The seat probably shouldn't be higher then the bars/stem
Riser bars with a neg. degree stem

I'm at work and have school soon so I'm out of time, add!

Depends on the seat, the rider, and the intended use of the bike.
