    mate, the saddle bag isn't an upgrade, you'll probably end up with a camelback of some sort and all your bits will go in that, the bag will end up in the parts bin with those wheel reflectors and pedals when you change them, in other words, its spoiling the lines of a lovely looking bike, nice one :D

    thats true, my mate had a sadlebag with a toolkit in and where the straps met the bag came apart, and that was only xc. it is a nice bike though :)

    first point, the grips are the wrong way round, i.e. left should be on the right, the bigger flange should be on the inside. secondly, they are rotated too far round, the upper flange should be pointing upwards, and the lower flange pointing down, troy lee should level with you, not on top of the bars, otherwise its a superb choice of grip, i refuse to use any others!

    I'll echo the saddle bag comments too, get a hydration pack of some sort, all saddle bags do is rattle around and fall apart
