Hi all,

Thanks for the replies, sorry I only saw them now. I know the bike is fairly budget, unfortunately the wife has more important plans for my paychecks at the moment lol

Common sense prevailed and the store are having the wheels completely rebuilt by hand, at no cost to me. Still sucks I have been without them now for over a week while the sun has been shining!

If I have more problems I am going to look to replace with some better quality wheels (thanks for the used tip eshew!)
