I had a service to my gears and had my disc brake pads replaced a couple of weeks ago. The guy who did it was very knowledgable and a good scource of information. He told me that my bike is great and if he were to reccomend anything to upgrade it would be the wheels.
I'm running on Maddux RD 3.0 28-spoke. Looking at some of the reviews they do seem to take some stick as they are the cheapest thing on the bike. However just swapping the wheels for the sake of it doesn't make sense. I'm told that to get any benefit from the upgrade £250 minimum needs spending otherwise no benefit is had. Am I right in thinking this way, because if there is no gain in the performance of the bike it becomes a pointless exercise, and to get any benefit in performance you need to spend above a certain level?
