My wife took my rear wheel into the LBS for a spoke & true. They repaired the wheel, but the owner (who I trust) told her that I should be looking to replace them soon, as the braking surface is starting to go concave.
He said I might get another 1000 miles out of them, but to be honest, I could probably do with some new wheels, and I don't want to suffer an exploding rim! They're the unbranded wheels that came with my Carrera Virtuoso, and whilst they've been fairly solid, I could probably do with something better.
Money is tight, so I'm looking for something solid (I weigh 16 .5 stone) which won't break the bank. Any ideas?
