Cranks, stem, bars. Anything you feel you need to change.

Save the cash & replace what you break when you need to.
Although saying that tyres are one of the best cheap upgrades, Panaracer Fire XC Pro's are my fave for all round xc/trail usage, cost ~œ40 for a pair of folding ones.

See my last post.
You never realise how bad something is unless you have something to compare it to
The Panaracers in my last post weigh 590g each, I saved 200g by swapping over from the steel bead versions to the kevlar folding ones, lighter means more agile & less weight to lug about on the trails, plus a higher TPI (threads per inch) means a more supple tyre which should give more grip.

Flog the current forks, then get on ebay with your œ130ish and find some marzocchis, they will transform the bike!
