• That's a spendy upgrade list, more than the bike to begin? Personally would upgrade as things wear out. Put on some Juin Tech brakes, upgrade the lights and maybe tyres. I'd put brakes ahead of a carbon crank too.

    Tyres will probably give the best value change, maybe throw on something like Michelin Pro4 endurance V2 in 28c .

  • I got the Red levers and crankset for £350, plus I'll sell off the stuff I'm removing, so as it's getting so many daily miles, it seems like good value. And I've always just wanted Red kit and it's my bike so there! (jk)

    Those brakes look good - I'll look into them!

    Are those tyres slicks? I rode on Kojaks for a while and although fast, they weren't grippy enough for the conditions and terrain I regularly ride - had two accidents which I'm pretty sure were avoidable.

  • That's a score on the components and your bike, I'd get sucked into doing the same :D
    Am a fan of the Juin Techs, not as good as the bikes with full hydro but close and much easier to fit.

    They are slicks, more winter orientated but still score very well on low rolling resistance. They can go off-road but if you're doing tow path or gravel daily, then the GKs make more sense.
