I'm not someone who needs high end wheels (I probably wouldn't notice the difference) ... I just want one that will keep going, stay true, and disk brake compatible. Unfortunately my LBS closed last year otherwise I'd have left it all up to them. The bearings have gone (making a horrible noise and stiff to turn) in the current one so Mr Summerdays has had to donate his front wheel in the mean time. (I don't like his.... it has bladed rather than round spokes - fussy aren't I). Not sure whether I should replace the rear wheel too, but maybe one thing at a time.
Anyway the existing front wheel (which had done 8 or 10 years service), was the bog standard one that came with the bike 26 inch wheel, 36 spoke, presta valve, disk brake Alexrims.
What would be a good replacement? Under £100 Nothing too delicate, they sometimes do a little off road...
