Changes from stock:
-Thompson seatpost
-FSA stem
-Sram cassette (saving the XX for racing)
I finally got my stem, installed it and took it for a ride at Afton. It's probably been 10 years since I've been there, and they've added some technical stuff. With a new bike, and a 29er, the technical stuff is tough, but I got through it on the second lap. I'm thinking it might be a better course for a 26er...except that a couple spots need some clearance. Anyway, cleaned up the bike and shot a photo this morning.
In retrospect, I wonder if I should have gotten the medium frame. I have a 130 stem and the seat is nearly jammed back all the way. Of course I also need to get a longer seatpost that normal (410).
