Next steps for my Rockhopper?

Hey guys,

I got this new Rockhopper Comp last year for $600 and have since put a few upgrades on it such as:

-PNW Loam 150mm dropper

-WTB Peacekeeper tires

-RaceFace Chester Pedals

-PNW Loam grips

-Salsa Rustler bar

I am wondering what next steps might be. I have put $950 into it (bike included). My specific questions are:

-Would it be worth it to upgrade the crankset, wheelset, and fork? If so, what would take priority to you? Not sure which wheelset, but I am considering getting a RockShox Rekon Silver and a Deore crankset

-If I did the above upgrades, would it perform as good or better than something like a stock Specialized Chisel (that’s my benchmark as it would be around the same price).

If it’s relevant, I am riding trails in western Colorado.

Thanks in advance for any recommendations!
