Pimping My Ride

The pieces are finally coming together... Now that I'm no longer stuck with eBay for getting bike parts online, I'm slowly but surely gathering the parts I need to truly pimp out my bike. I'm going to use the winter months to accumulate these parts to debut an awesomely macked out ride for the new cycling season. If any one wants to help me accomplish this mini-project please let me know.
-Convert my Schrader tubes/rims to Presta
-Install Mr. Tuffy Red - To toughen up my tires.
-Install replace my peddles with clipless ones. Get shoes to match.
-Replace current chain with PowerLink based chain.
-Replace headlight with LED based system.
(OK any bike buff will tell you these mods are fairly minor, but I'm going to get some satisfaction out of this DIY project dammit.)
