What are the Right road bike components for casual fitness rider?

I just purchased a pretty cheap bike and I’m slowly going to upgrade the main components: derailleur’s. Fork, cranks etc. Etc.

The question is: does a casual fitness rider like me really going to need let’s say… Shimano 105, Ultegra, Dura-ace components; or is there something more appropriate? Mainly less expensive T.T?

Thanks everyone

how cheap. if it is very cheap then the frame is not right and most important is to start with a good frame. otherwise you should leave it and use the way it is and then try to get a better more well made and lighter frame. my bike has alot of weinmann and suntour parts and it works good how it is but someday i would put campagnolo on there and see if its better. but really even then i will like to have a better frame first.
