Edit: so it turns out that every hobby can be expensive if you do it long enough.

Also I love how you talk about your hobby as some addicts.

    In my opinion they aren’t even gains. Making the bike more efficient just makes it less exercise efficient. You have to bike longer to get the same workout.

        Upgrading the drivetrain can make sense. Perhaps the brakes. Shocks if you are mountain biking. But no one needs a carbon fiber frame unless they are competing.
