Used brake inners once and not impressed as both snapped at the brake lever end at the same time during heavy a braking incident days after fitting them.
Complained to wilko and sent them back for testing at their request.
Wilko admitted problem and compensated me with an apology and giftcard.

Wouldn't stop me using trying their stuff but personally don't have confidence in there safety critical components.

Gear inners and V brake pads used, bought flick bell 99p and an I (heart) my bike bell (for mom's bike NOT mine !) . Generally if I'm doing a refurb of an old bike they can't be beaten on price. My LBS is charging £3.50 for a gear inner

Don't need a basket on the road bike.
A large lidle carrier bag will hang nicely from the brifters

I worded that wrongly lol sorry I meant if I get one it's goin on the hybrid to use for Nippin to the shops ect and road bike for rides out longer than a few mile

 

[P.H]

Have used the brake blocks and cables when I had a pub bike, the cables rusted and the blocks wore out quicker then my usual brand, still worth it for the money.
Still use the puncture repair kits, they look exactly the same as the Weldtite ones at twice the price and I've had no problems using them.

I guessed what you meant. Still no reason not to hang a shopping bag off the road bike though
