Advice on what to do next

[Johnym]

I posted a couple of weeks back about spokes on front and rear wheels on my cube peloton coming loose or popping.

Finally the wheels were replaced under warranty but the new set have done the same 75 miles in. What could be causing this and do I ask for the whole bike to be replaced now?

Taking wheels in for truing every week or so is getting annoying now.

I'm 13 stone so I hope my weight is not causing the problem.

buy a new wheelset save yourself the headache and if you dont want to do that return the bike and get a refund

No I wouldn't have thought that your weight is the problem. Do you have a decent LBS? I'd report the wheels under warranty and if you get a new set, take them to your LBS to be looked at. It may be worth mentioning that you'll be doing this to the people replacing your wheels. They may even pay for your LBS to have a look but doubtful. LBS should charge max around £15 per wheel to fully true and tension them properly.

First set of wheels were replaced under warranty. This is the second set. Bikes back at shop now, halfords and on route to leisure lake bikes where it originated from.

Second time it's gone back and I hate being without it. Unfortunately I. Don't have a +1

Unfortunately I think this word is the cause of your problem. When you get it back, take it to a decent local bike shop and get them to check it over. From what I've read on here, there's certainly nothing wrong with the Peloton as a bike (I don't have one) and so would suggest the setup is poor. An LBS will sort it for you.
