Hey Hey
I'm looking to replace the wheels on my wifes old bike.
Don't want anything fancy or trick, just a decent set of wheels to stop her moaning that I never look after her bike!
She inherited an old gas pipe Peugeot from her grandmother a few years back and I've given it some basic love and attention as time allows.
It was never in great nick and now the time has come to replace the rusty steel Rigida wheel set for something a bit more modern.
So, your input on where to buy the wheels is appreciated.
I need 700C wheels (28x15/8x1/8) with a Sturmey Archer 3 speed hub.
Second hand or brand new as long as they don't break the bank.
Where would you buy them?
Or, would I be better off getting the hub serviced and then getting new wheels built onto the serviced hub?
Appreciate your input.
Cheers
