Hello everyone. I've been toying with the idea of getting a new bike. I currently have a 2012 giant trance x2. I'm not sure if I should spend $1500 on it and turn it into more of an AM bike from XC or just sell it and spend the money on a new bike. Giant has 69.5 ha and the upgrades I was thinking about were:
New 140mm fork. Going from 120
New wheelset and going tubeless
Dropper post.
Shorter stem and wider bars (already have 70mm and 710)
It also needs new cranks.
So I'm looking at $1500-1600 to invest into the bike. Is it worth it. Or do I sell it for $1000ish and use that money I would invest towards the Bronson. (Obviously it would cost me more)
What's everyones though?
Thanks
