2. I purchased the additional upgrades because that is half the fun for me. I am by no means a rich man but I am single, no kids, I have a decent job and I am fairly wise with my $. I also enjoy selling extras or giving them to friends. I also do not mind having an extra set of beater wheels.
3. I am not considering buying anything. I am about to have a shop credit for around 1K from me busting my ass on a day off and catering for 100ppl. solo. Additionally, I am just getting the frame and a few odds and ends and with the remainder I am finishing my gf's SS 29er (Salsa Dos Niner w/magic gear (32t./21t.).
just sayin'
