Should I invest in a better bike or just modify parts on my MTB?

Send your bicycle to a bicycle shop to have it appraised for upgrading.

If the upgrading cost is low, borrow a bicycle from a friend who is cycling on similar specifications your bicycle will be upgraded to. Does it make any difference for you if you have the upgrades suggested by the bicycle shop done?

If the cost to upgrade is more than the cost of your current bicycle or close to the price of a new bicycle, then you should consider investing in a better bicycle once you are sure that you are into cycling seriously. Talk to your friends who are cycling and read up about their feedback. With these information, it will be easier for you to choose the right bike.

Don’t discard your old bicycle though if you opt to buy a new one. If you mount it on a trainer, you can use it like a gym cycling equipment to build up your stamina. This is way cheaper than getting a gym equipment.
