If you detest Shimano, there's not much to discuss. There is one change I would consider, but it will only be economical if your shifters and brake levers are separate, not combined units. If they are separate, I would consider changing to V brakes. Used good quality V's are easy to find cheap and so are the required replacement levers for V brakes. Other than that l wouldn't make any changes. If the brake levers/shifters are combined units, I wouldn't bother making any changes.
