found one, thanks!

Thanks, but still looking

I just use road bikes to commute 5-10 miles a day, need nothing expensive and nothing that will get stolen. Don't care too much about how it looks, as long as it is all working. Prefer something sti shifters but really would consider downtube shifters My last road bike was 21" frame, pm me -...

Any guides how to remove all of this stuff? I've never done it before, thank you

Looking for a decent road bike prefer it to be kind of light, 10-11kg is fine, willing to pay up to £200 bike has to be fully working and not need any kind of servicing I'm located in London, 170cm tall, 30" inseam 52cm bike but can usually squeeze for 54 also.

Where are you located? Also, any ideas of the weight? thanks

Thanks, is this for both wheels or the front?

No I bought it from ebay. I contacted the seller about the front wheel hub and he told me he'd send me out a new wheel Monday, however if the back wheel has a problem also I will just return the bicycle to the seller, as I don't want any hassle. What do you mean by "play" in the bearings?

I've checked all the spokes and I'm sure it's coming from the front hub. I am not sure about the rear wheel, it rides fine for me... I just want to know if it's safe to ride, as that's all I really care about at the end of the day.

Well I recently got a new bike, and today I started to notice the wheel noise from my front wheel. It seems to be coming from the hub, if I take the wheel from the bike and spin only the axle on the hub the noise appears. The rear wheel, I'm not sure - I think that sounds normal. I've attached...

Changed it! Thanks :)

Looks fine to me, how is it supposed to look? The seatpost is the metal bar attached to the seat right?

Yeah, 700x23c the tyre says. Where'd you get the bartape?

I was thinking of getting pure black or white walled tyres, and some leather black handlebar tape, but only doing it to the brake lever how it is now. The current tape is completely worn, and it was put on very badly (even by my standards, and I know nothing about bikes!). I'll probably keep...

Re: Are all reynolds 531 bikes light? Just to update, the bike is 10kg, more than light enough for me. Here are a few photos I quickly took: I love it. I was thinking of getting new tyres, any ideas on which colours would look good? One more question, does anyone know how to clean the...

Re: Are all reynolds 531 bikes light? How much would decent light(ish) wheels be?

Re: Are all reynolds 531 bikes light? Thanks... I guess anything is an upgrade over my 16kg road bike from before, lol.

Re: Are all reynolds 531 bikes light? Ebay, I've already bought it at £110. Should be here Friday. I'd most certainly consider upgrading the wheels, but not right away - just hope it's light enough for right away use.

Re: Are all reynolds 531 bikes light? Yeah I saw that, but it states: " rx 100 shimano groupset" I don't know much about bikes, but I'm assuming that will weigh lighter than my bikes groupset (whatever that is :p).
