Advice on wheels and freewheels.
 

Hi guys,

I don't know much about about bikes, so bare with me.

I want to buy new front and rear wheels but I have no idea what's 'good' or how much they should be.

I'm not looking for anything fancy, I just want it to be all black (the spokes as well as the rim itself).

I also want to buy a new freewheel because mine is getting cranky and making a lot of noise and has gotten louder in the past week :(

Any advice would be good, thanks!

My girlfriend's single speed uses a shimano freewheel, they are fairly quiet.

As for wheels, it really depends on your budget and your style of riding, Retrogression sells affordable wheels: http://www.retro-gression.com/

Thanks guys. Any UK website? I'm from London, England. I found some on eBay, but it's still coming from the States, so p+p is costing me a fortune :(

It's my assumption that Retrogression ships internationally.

Thanks bro, appreciate your help!

Yeah, but they charge me $70 for shipping to the UK! :(

Well that's that. I would try to find a UK ebay dealer then.

That's a very expensive website, lol! I appreciate all the help guys, but my budget isn't massive! I'd say about £80-100 for the wheelset.

Velodrome shop is mostly a really high end track site, but it has a set of nice wheels for 65 pounds and a really nice set for 81.

I think those are just individual wheels.

Yeah, I think so too.

For the money the best freewheels I've used are Excess not to say that there aren't better (White industries) but for the money the Excess are pretty nice
