Thanks for the feedback folks. I'll certainly be keeping the original cassette, but from my perspective it does seem to make sense to get a 11/12-27 for the hills!

I've an 11-23 cassette on my bike right now & i'm thinking of changing the cassette to an 11 or 12-27T cassette. The only reason i'm thinking of doing this is that i'm not a good/natural climber (i'm 15 stone..) and i'm looking to get more involved in organised rides this year, I'm thinking...

No probs! :)

The seat is quite comfortable so I'll probably just focus on the wheels, thanks for the advice.

No, absolutely not. I'm not selling anything, nor have I any association/ties with anyone selling. There's nothing wrong with the bike per-se (the gear change could be a bit sharper if I was being critical.). I'll have a look at wheels. Thanks.

"shill something"? -not sure what you mean. I'm new to road cycling as such (ie, bought my first "proper" road bike earlier this year; obviously excluding BMX & a mountain bike as a kid..), I'm really enjoying the cycling and looking to get more involved, I've already bought proper cycling...

I have a Claude Butler San Remo road bike, I'm looking to upgrade it bit by bit (I can't afford to go buy a new bike outright). My question is what order should I buy the components? ie; new frame first followed by chainset then wheels etc etc... Thanks!
