Hi - well I just started back into cycling again last year with MTBing and this year I started road riding in the spring with a goal of being able to complete some long distance charity events and perhaps enter into a few races as a Cat5 racer...
Right now I ride a 08 Specalized Roubaix Elite, I put Ultrgra wheelset and Ultrgra 12-25 cassette and DA chain on a month ago and wow what a difference. I dorped the stem a bit and that has worked out quite nicely as well.
I was jsut about to search on BF for other performance gains tips out of a entry level bike...
cheers
