any suggestions, have an old carlton flyer track bike. Currently have navigator pistas which personally don't cut it for me for commuting so looking for something a bit more comfortable

H plus son rims are very popular but for good reason.

Hubs - sealed bearing good quality like suzue.

Spend a decent amount of money on good parts now and save on maintenance cost/time later.

7 years in London commuting everyday tought me this :)

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
