2005 Trek 5000 Upgrade path
Afternoon.
I recently took up cycling again after a ~16 year break, starting with a indoor trainer and now progressing back to the road. So, to get back out there, I pulled down and dusted off my old bike a 2005 Trek 5000.
16 years is a long time and while I could always buy a new ride and that would be the most fun, the one thing that could benefit from the most improvement right now is me.
That being said, I think the frame is likely worthy of a few minor (or transferrable) upgrades while I work on my fitness. Which upgrades to an otherwise all-stock (circa 2005) bike would be the most beneficial, from wear items like tires and tubes to wheels and pedals that would give the most enjoyment at the lowest cost? I've been completely removed for quite a while and haven't kept apace of changes.
