This times infinity.

If you want to upgrade the wheels, sure, I could see that, but the entire grouppo? No need. At least not right now.

As for wheels, I wouldn't ride 20 spoke rears ... mine are 24 (Fulcrum Racing 7s) and they've been solid.

Invest your time and money into riding lots first. The biggest improvement you can make in terms of speed and distance are improving the engine
