Hi, I am getting into cycling after several years of not owning a bike. Seeing that I haven't owned a bike in several years; I want this bike to be quality and last a long time. The main reason for getting the bike is to commute about 8-10 miles per day and exercise on the weekends. I was wondering if anyone had some suggestions as to what the best gear to buy for my bike will be (U-locks, saddles, after market parts, ect...) Any and all suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
