Ive been using an entry level Jamis road bicycle (700$) for about 2 years, and just recently got into longer rides (30 miles) with a group of coworkers at my new job. I got clipless pedals, shoes, new tires, and a new seat (to drow weight and add comfort). All relatively cheap upgrades, which have made a big difference. If i were to upgrade the wheelset, what set would you recommend, and how much money would I be looking to spend for it to even make a difference. I currently have AKX R1.0 A Class rims (stock) The reason I ask is if its gonna cost 800 dollars for it to even matter, I would either just not upgrade, or get a few more years out of my bike and get a new bike.

Thanks.
