We haven’t seen as many big discounts on mountain bike components as we have for complete bikes this year, though at least parts are more readily available now than they were a year or two ago. Big upgrades — to suspension, wheels, or drivetrain — can totally transform how a bike rides, and in many cases it’s a less expensive alternative to buying a whole new bike.
Tell us which upgrades you’ve made in the past year, and how they worked out, in the comments below.
