hi , bit of a newby here but i bought an APPOLLO PHAZE from halfords last year in the cycle 2 work scheme and the bike really suits me and me it. trouble is i have had the bike back to the shop on numerous occassions to have the back wheel fixed ( bearings, cogs, cassette and even new chain and now it needs to go back in again (wobbly back wheel). is it worth putting a new ( non halfords products) back wheel and bearings etc or should i just cut my losses and run to work lol. the bike is used for commuting 100 miles per week at most on road and good cycle paths and wee runs on cycle paths at weekend. love cycling ...... love the bike but what should i do ............ thanks

Wobbly - is that the rim not running straight, or the whole wheel being wobbled.

You could have a snapped spoke, or a slight buckle - normal wear and tear - especially cheap wheels.

The bike isn't expensive - a good set of wheels would cost a minimum of £100 -
