Settling For Less, Worth Upgrading?

    No matter how much I dream, I'll never be able to afford the €2,300 or so for the Lapierre Zesty 314 so I've decided to get the Tecnic FS 700 which is a much more affordable, but still costly, €1,000.

    Thing is, would it be worth eventually upgrading parts on the Tecnic FS 700, say put on the Formula RX with 180 rotors? Or some Fox shocks and forks with some extra frork travel?

    How much would a decent set of wheels and an XT cost?
