I just bought a new 'cheap' bike for commuting and pub runs. Whilst I wasn't expecting aerospace engineering for £300 I didn't expect some of the things I found.
The biggest problem is the front wheel rim joint - there is a high ridge on it which catches the brake pad when the brakes are applied. This not only makes a very annoying sound with every wheel revolution but also judders the handlebars.
The bike is only a few days old - the front wheel should be replaced under warranty right?
The welding around the BB looks like a monkey did it (Cromoly) - should be strong enough though?!
