What do you want to upgrade? What do you want to achieve? How much can you spend?

Pointless post.

If you are going to get a new bike next year, I would save your money now and get a better bike when you can

blow and hookers, more fun than bits for a bike you plan on replacing.

I've got a Giant Rainier. I've just upgraded the peddles (DMR V8's) Forks (RS Tora 302's) & put some lock on grips on.
I'm not gonna do anymore to it as I personally don't see the point. I will just replace worn out parts until I get good enough to upgrade to a better/ more suited bike to my style of riding.
The upgrades i've done so far haven't cost much, the forks have definitely improved the ride.. I guess it just depends what you want from the upgrades and whether to spend money on a bike you are thinking of replacing next year. Just save your money up and ride said bike into the ground, that way you can save for a new shiney bike whilst still riding the trails.
