Just Ordered

After drooling over the Motobecane Fantom Pro SL 29 for more than a year I finally put my order in for two a 15" for my wife and a 21" for me. My wife is 5'7" and I'm 6'4".

Pre-Initial changes:
I am putting 400 mm Kalloy seatposts on because I know that the included seatpost is only 350mm which won't be long enough for my wife, and I love the two bolt clamp on this post.

I am also going to switch out the tires as soon as I pull the wheels out of the box, my wife has the Nevegals that came on her OutCast 29 and I ordered a pair of Continental Mountain King 2.4's.

I'll put my favorite Oury grips on mine and I am looking at the Ergon grips, or something similar but cheaper.

Any suggestions? Or questions? I'll try to keep this updated with my impressions and the changes I make on our bikes.
