The bike I'm on now is "ok" but I have that upgrade/build itch and find myself looking at new stuff. I'm wondering what will make the biggest difference(for the better) in my ride. At the moment I can sort of feel where dunlop cut corners everywhere.
A) frame
Going from the cheap pile of heavy junk dunlop thing I have to either a dolan(pre cursa or the next one up) or I really like the green. Will likely mean new forks too as the white ones I have won't go well.
B) wheels
I have to admit I don't know a huge amount about wheels, can swap them and replace spokes but really that's about it, generally speaking decisions I have made are purely based on price so thats a cheap wheel thats an expensive wheel and so not always quality. Seem to be good reviews of vspirit wheels(?) and I remember a forum code somewhere so a set of them maybe or am I looking at a much of a much for everything between the cheap junk I have now and tri spokes and things?
C) other/both
Could probably squeeze to a full build with a dolan pre cursa and a cheap wheelset but would I just be taking a shortcut that will cost me later.
