    Thanks buddy, appreciate the feedback. The hand grips are only temp, they are being changed for some older brown grips, and the lights, I know it's the summer here in the UK, but this is my ride atm and I ride in the dark, so I need some lights. But thanks again!

    chain ring was already on The frame, and the pedals I liked and were cheap. Maybe the chain ring will change, but for now it stays.
