Spent about 3 hours at FreeRangeCycles in Seattle testing different bikes. I'm looking for a bike for touring/camping (weekends and longer trips). I decided on the Surly LHT with 26" wheels in black. It will be available in about one week - so I have some time to decide on the saddle, pedals and any other changes/upgrades. Here is what I'm thinking....any feedback is appreciated.

Peddles - flat on one side with SPD on the other
Saddle - Brooks B17
Adding extended brakes (still debating this $75 option)
Silver metal fenders
Rack - reuse either a Blackburn or Trek rack

Other things I need to consider:
Light
Computer
Handlebar bag

I just bought a B.O.B. trailer off craigslist. So I don't need pannier bags yet.

I've worked long hours this year without much time for fun. This purchase is a reward for the work and an incentive to get out and have fun in 2011. Is there anything else I should consider for outfitting this bike?

Thanks,
Dog
