Congrats RD1959! What color did you get? Post the unboxing (uncrating?) photos when you get the bike!

As for gears and what-not, I agree with Pyoungbl and 2LZ. Ride it for a little while before you decide to make any changes. You'll get a pretty good feel for what you'd like to do after getting familiar with the bike.

Now to answer your question, some folks changed the 14T front counter sprocket to a 13T gear. I, on the other hand, went with a 42T rear sprocket (from the 44T stock rear sprocket) as I wanted to reduce highway RPM and extend the gears a bit in town (able to get across an intersection without shifting into 3rd gear), but I live at sea level, so this works for me.

Congrats again! Looking forward to your impressions and next posts!
