Just make sure that seat post is the right size. The UO8 used an odd sized post, so hopefully someone got the right size and did not put one on the wrong size.

The other upgrades are ones you typically would want to do, so the owner saved you a lot of headaches. Replace the stem (prone to failure), the handlebars with an alloy version, and some aero levers, and you should be ready to go.
