    nice fork, nice wheels

    have to significantly up the budget to get better.

    why do you feel the need to 'upgrade'?

    Seriously....they are good peple!

    Don't you think the spec of these two components is inferior to the rest of the bike?

    No it's quite coherent. Do your friends comment on how cheap your bike is and treat you differently ? I doubt it but if that's the case you need new friends.
    Or is it reverse snobbery where you feel out of place because of your equipment and despite them maybe not being bothered what you ride ?
    You clearly have a lovely bike and should make the most of it. HTH!!

    I have to back the guys up here, theres too much snobbery goin round.

    Its not just what you ride its how you ride it, and no 1 priority is to enjoy :D
    You only get one shot .........so make it a double !
