I am considering a wheel, or at least a hub upgrade. I have always read bad things about the Joytech hubs that came on the bike. Not looking to spend more than I paid for the bike on this project. I would like some opinions on this.

Opinions......see below..................

What do you want to fix? "actually makes this bike ride pretty decent" The name printed on the hubs? A back-up bike? I can't think of a possible solution to whatever problem that you might have that could be done with the $1.50 budget that I would allocate for your project.
