Computer & lights
I've already got a couple of Cateye V2c/V3 computers; the V3 tracks heartrate, in addition to the speed and cadence monitored by the V2c. The speed/cadence sensor, magnets, and handlebar mount brackets, are exactly the same for both.
I've also got a spare Ixon IQ headlight. These interfere with many wireless computers, including my previous Cateye, but not with the 2.4GHz Cateye V2c/V3.
I'm torn between two Cateye rear lights. The compact TL-LD170 is an old and trusted favourite - simple, inexpensive, effective, and reliable. The bigger TL-AU100BS incorporates a large reflector and looks like it could be just the thing for British winters, I'd be interested to see one in the flesh and give it a try. I just might end up ordering one of each.

Headset, chainring, shifter, handlebar, stem, & a bottle ordered
chainreactioncycles.com just had a £10-off weekend promotion, which ended at noon today. With the help of a couple of other established CRC account holders, I've ordered six more components and bagged £30 off.
For the purposes of keeping track of what I've spent, I've split the total discount between the six items, in proportion to their cost. Total price would otherwise have been £194.94; total discount was £30.00, which is 15.4%.
Spent today:
- chainring (Shimano DXR CR80, black 4-bolt 46t) £54.99 -15.4% = £46.53
- headset (M:Part In-Line Low Profile, black 1.1/8") £21.99 -15.4% £ = £18.61
- shifter (Shimano XTR M980 10 speed trigger, RH rear, bar mount) £64.99 -15.4% = £54.99
- handlebar (Controltech SUP MTB, 25.4 x 560mm) £29.99 -15.4% = £25.37
- stem (FSA XC-150 LX, 25.4 x 110mm) £14.99 -15.4% = £12.68
- bottle (CamelBak Podium, clear 710ml) £7.99 -15.4% = £6.76
Spent so far:
- frame (including £20.00 delivery) = £332.88
- crankset (including £6.00 delivery) = £126.00
- fork (including £10.00 delivery) = £63.50
- wheelset (presuming I collect) = £162.63
- brake calipers (including £5.00 delivery) = £18.83
- chainring = £46.53
- headset = £18.61
- shifter = £54.99
- handlebar = £25.37
- stem = £12.68
- bottle = £6.76
Total = £868.78

Seating
Although this frame doubtless deserves something lighter and sleeker, I'll be using my existing trusty Selle SMP Plus saddle, at least to begin with. It's a hefty 375g or thereabouts - I'll weigh it properly when the time comes to transfer it.
A 23.3g Litespeed 31.8mm seatpost clamp came with the frame.
And I'm currently prowling eBay for a 27.2mm carbon fibre seatpost.
Possible seatpost:
- Bontrager Race XXX Lite, 20mm setback
- 150g (claimed)
- http://bontrager.com/model/00286
