Whatever breaks first!

Or, if you must (in order of significance);

1. Wheels/Tires
2. Fork
3. Brakes (Better V's or Discs)
4. Shifters
5. Cranks/bb (stock bb's are HEAVY!)
6. Derailleurs (Rear first, then front)
7. Seatpost/Stem/Handlebar

Would upgrading to a new model be worth it? like Giant rainer or a nother Fisher. FS is to expensive for me.
