New wheels are supposed to have the spokes retensioned after about 200 miles or so, every newly built wheel.

Nothing wrong with your bike,
just regular maintenance.

Breaks squeal and squeak when they need adjusting, easy job.

Nothing new to buy, just adjustments to make.


Sounds like brake rub. or a loose skewer, or some kind of easy fix.

Did you give your wife back the good wheel, or make her ride the whole way with the bad one?
