in MTB general
After many years of dithering, I have justmad e the move form 26er and bought my first 29er...
The bike, a KTM Myroon Prime 12, is superb, but seems that the bars, stem and post are where the budget was nipped.
on my old Scott Scale 10, I was/ am running Ritchey Superlight, or WCS components.
What's about know, that is comparible, or better than my Ritchey stuff?...

    What is wrong with the seat post, bars and stem currently fitted?

    As for replacement parts, it depends on your budget. You can spend anything from £10's to £100's.

    The current bars, etc are a tad heavy. I don't mind paying a fair price for good kit.

    Kalloy Uno stem is a great option, very reasonable priced and super light, I've had one on my bikes (swapped from one to another) for 3 years, with a set of Ti bolts (Chinese for a Ritchey stem) it was less than £30 and comes in at circa 82g (70mm for 31.8mm bars).
