Default Buying that first 36er


I was going to buy this 36er:

http://tinyurl.com/87rtxy

Are there alternatives that anyone would suggest?
I thought ISIS cranks would be best for perhaps upgrading later – are
they?
I learnt on 152mm cranks and thought they would be ok for my first 36er
– am I correct?
I expect to be riding on flat with some gradients – do I have to assess
crank length relevant to the expected gradients - and buy spare ones?
I am not sure what the best pedals are but assume DX aluminium is good
with the steel pins – is this right?
I was getting the T7 handle and assume this would be better than just
settling for the seat handle alone – is this a big improvement?
Can anyone comment on the tyre profile – is the Nimbus Nightrider tyre
good?
Is there anything I have missed?

All feedback gratefully recieved
