i own a trek 1.5 with tigra chainset and shimano rs10 wheels, im thinking of getting a carbon frame bike as well, but not sure if i will notice the difference, between the 2 bikes enough to justify spending £1500 on a willier izoard xp 2012, with 105 chainset. would it just be better upgrading my rs10 wheels and getting a 105 chainset for the trek 1.5 ?

  • What are you looking to improve on your bike? The only reason I ask is because a Tiagra to 105 crank set upgrade will not do much for the bike, and will only save a little bit of weight. The wheels would be a big change depending what ones you go for, but I think a crank set upgrade would not be too noticeable.
