Treating myself to an xmas present. I have a lovely 08 Cannondale F3, used as my daily commute and the weekend blast around Manly Dam. Whats a better value upgrade, a wheelset or a drivetrain?
I have an X7 derailleur and shifters and an older Deore FC-M521 crankset. The wheels are WTB Speed Discs.
I've got about $350 to spend and for the money I can get a nice set of '09 Easton XC One wheels or I can get shiny new XT cranks and X9 shifters and derailleurs.
Word on the street is that the wheelset should always be your first upgrade, plus I'd then have two wheel sets, with one for my road tyres....any thoughts?
Open to any suggestions if anyone knows better ways to part with my cash.
