Asda have a few bike bits reduced like helmets etc. I got a bike computer for £3 and a pump for £2.50. Probably not great quality but will do for short trips.

Check the pump is usable at home before you have to use in anger in the wilds after a fairy visit :okay:

The essentials2 wheels seem pretty decent. The shiny red is a bit garish though - doesn't quite go with the electric blue frame...

But at least now I'm less concerned about my rear wheel exploding on a pothole. The old rims are so concave I'm worried the local speleologists might take an interest.

Very good advice, bought one of these pumps from asda a year or so ago and had to start playing around with connection, took what seemed hours as there where other cyclists waiting on me when i needed it but may only have been minutes but worked well enough when i sorted out the connection.

I have to concur, been pleased with them in terms of stiffness and not encountered problems with poor quality build like I've seen on other forum posts from a few years ago (probably didn't relate to these wheels and hubs specifically, but to Superstar Components in general)
