~cranks-gusset on a budget, deity otherwise
~bottom bracket-your call really, I dont know if pitbull is spanish or euro also
~bars-anything w/ a 2-3" rise
~wheelset-atomlab pimps, hands down. Or if your concerned with weight pimplites
~headset-anything really, ck or FSA would be nice
~seat and post-.243 .243 .243 .243, def
~pedals-some of those thin gold specialized ones that come on the fuse 3, sx I and otehr high end bikes
~brakes-I like my juicy 7 but a hope mono might be cool
~shifters-X-O? I run single speed...
~fork-Argyle solo air or an old sherman jumper
~bash guard and guide-e13, the blackspire ones are nice too...
~tires-twinrails, holy rollers
