New wheels

John Hearns said:

Went into Decathlon at lunchtime, just for a nosey.
Why do I go into bikeshops...

700C wheelset, reduced from 69 to 34 pounds.
I couldn't resist.
Miche hubs, 28 spoke, with stainless steel black spokes.

Anyone know if these are any good?
Too late now really...

Tomorrow you'll need to go back for a frame. Oh, and some chainrings.
Maybe a seat post and saddle? Then there's the front derailleur (and a
rear one). A set of pedals.... Yes, these wheels are going to turn out
to be a real bargain ;-)

Naaah.
I already replaced the cassette for a wider range one (transformed the
bike). SRAM chain also.
Put new 42cm wide handlebars on at the weekend, the excude being
an Italian tourist doing the continental green cross code a few months ago,
and bars being a bit bent.

New frame... now you are talking.
Can I have the titanium Merlin Extralight frame I saw at Eastway on
Sunday? Ooohhh.....
