Title says it all really. I have upgraded pedals on my quite heavy but sturdy Python. Is it worth getting a better front fork .to improve handling, reduce vibration and save weight?

    Nice detailed reply. Any reason or suggestions on a better way to spend cash?

    Wheels, perhaps? Manufacturers often skimp on the wheels to keep the price down.

    +1

    You should see a bigger improvement in all areas with a decent wheelset. Are your forks actually really flexy then??

    They are quite heavy. So was looking for a bit of a weight saving. Wheels are another option.
