And to be clear, this is my game plan.

I want to switch out everything by this time next year. Once I am happy with all my parts, I want to get a better frame. I am thinking Cannondale Track.

The parts I have are all I could afford on a budget and I didn't want to start off with a really nice bike. Seeing rookies on $4,000 bikes makes me cringe.

I am ****ing devoted too. I am moving into my friend's closet just so I can save up for bike stuff. And since I got a job as a courier (although delivering only makes up about 60% of my hours) I feel its justified.

My buddy told me I should really focus on a crankset first but man, I hate my fork. I've heard having a nice fork makes a huge difference in handling and $90 for a carbon fork? The Nashbar fork seems like such a steal!
