Winter and Spring Project

I just got my new (old stock) Iron Horse frame from a great deal on eBay. A beefy 2004 Warrior frame. I plan on building it up as an All Mountain, do anything, bombproof, beast. Here are my plans.
120-130mm Travel Marzocchi Fork
1 or 2x 9 drivetrain, Sram X.7 or X.9 rapidfire
RaceFace Crankset/Bashgaurd
Avid BB5 Discs Speed Dial 7 levers
Deore Wheelset
2.3 Nevegal Stick-E tires
TruVativ Holzfeller Cockpit
This is just the basic direction I am headed. Any suggestions please leave a comment any help would be great.

If it's an All Mountain bomb proof bike, get some Velocity Deep V rims on there. Lifetime warranty on them puppies and you can pick some sweet colors. I've ran my set into trees on the xc trails and blasted down concrete stairs in downtown G.R. and never had any problems. Definitely a wheelset that could outlast the rest of the bike.
My green Epic has some Velocity rims on it. My new Kona Kula 2-9er has some, too.
Cheers
