I have a Boardman Hardtail Pro, Which i'm very happy with as a mountain bike. My performance has improved quite well and when on the road I am averaging 17mph over 15 miles. In terms of riding a mountain bike on the road, is this a good average speed?

I'm now considering buying a road bike but am wondering if it's worth it? Is it plausable to put racing bike tyres on my mountain bike wheels? Would I see any performace differences?

Thanks
