I have a 2002 Trek 1000(steel frame w/ aluminum fork) but am too broke and cheap to buy a whole other bike. Im trying to break into racing but i know i need some upgrades for the bike so that it can respond better to my riding. Basically, I just don't trust the Sora components when im downhilling. The brakes are gonna get me killed some day.
That said im looking to keep the frame but making a couple additions to the bike. Heres what they are...
Mavic Ksyrium SLs(latest models... i think 2005s are out) w/ Michilin Pro's
Ultegra 9sp groupo(the full kit)
Dura Ace shifters
I plan on picking all of this off of EBay.
Tell me if you see any serious risks here or If I'm doing anything incredibly stupid. Advice would be appreciated. And dont flame me either. I know I know nothing but I wanna learn. Flames to this post would be like playing basketball with a retarded kid and calling him for double dribble.
