I only had 1 left when i had the old wheels for some reason Impressed with them so far, didnt have the legs this morning and picked a hilly start but they defo seem to roll faster

...... but they defo seem to roll faster

That's purely incidental when they look so damned cooooool!

Even the other half (who isnt a huge bike fan) said WOW when they rolled the bike out with the new wheels thats good enough for me

Cracking result Col, I'm getting you to phone up Decathlon the next time I have problems with my bike... though I think even you might have struggled to get anything out of them when I took the remains of my T3 in for the last rites!

Hopefully you don't have any problems, although i would advise upgrading the wheels and tyres as soon as you can cause both are terrible, I was told yesterday i do too many miles a week for the wheels to last any amount of time.

IMHO that's a pretty amazing confession from Decathlon for their own brand wheels...

New wheels and tyres fitted

Now... what's wrong with this picture...

1. Cranks at 3 o'clock.
2. Valve stems not at 6 o'clock.
3. Tyre labels not lined up with valve stems.

Very poor effort.

Chain's not as tight as it could be either

Seriously Colin, I do like it and it certainly looks the business. I'd post a picture of mine with it's new wheels and all, but it would just look scruffy in comparison. My next bike will definitely be black!

Chain on the bottom ring
Saddle bag and lights on the bike
bottle in cage
seat not 'spirit' level
