I only have the one bike, and a limited amount of money to spend (on anything), and, basically, shit wheels, massive tyres, tiny chainring, massive freewheel & mtb risers don't feature particularly high up on my list of future upgrades, as neither does getting my bike fucked up. I liked it when I played it, even tho it did seem perhaps a tiny bit too competitive for what it actually was, but if I was to get involved regularly I really would want to have my own bike, and that doesn't look like it's going to happen any time soon, unless I find one in my garden or something (don't have a garden).
