I am new to cycling and bought a used 2017 Giant Contend 1 (shimano sora) in good condition for $200 a few months ago. I wanted to start with something cheap to see if I would actually use it and I have been doing a few 20-40 mile rides a week and love it and want to continue.

I am at point where I am thinking about getting a bike fit to try to find a more comfortable position and upgrading the tires and getting a general tune up.
Do you think it is worth investing into this bike or is it too old/ entry level to be worth it? Or some other reason I’m not thinking of
If I bought another one my budget would only be about 1.5k$ so I don’t know if it would take me out of the entry level range.
I want a bike setup where I feel I’m not damaging my body and clunking around going unnecessarily slow as I continue to do longer rides and improve. I will probably not be able to fight the capitalistic urge in a few years and upgrade regardless.
Appreciate your thoughts!
