I can make the time to drop in this week and pick one up rather than faff with online ordering. Can vouch for their sturdy-ness. Girlfriend has a Decathlon frame that came with those wheels that she happily used until upgrades came at Christmas. Only slight issue she had was with it coming slightly out of true, but the roads round us are pot holed to a ridiculous extent and I was soon able to straighten them again. Well I had only planned to have the cheap wheel as an emergency spare and fix my other wheel at a leisurely pace, but I have to say I am tempted to just spend a bit more and get a new better more reliable wheel. Ive used them for years for commuting on and they are fine, they are heavy but Ive never had any problems apart from bending one when I had an off.

Sports retailer Decathlon are known for their relatively priced but quality range of products, and their own bike brands Triban and Van Rysel appease the reputation that the French brand have acquired. In , Decathlon revealed it was planning to drop the B'twin name from its Triban road bikes. It has since implemented the overhaul of its Triban range, as well as launching two new models. The range will now just be known as Triban, as opposed to B'twin Triban. On paper, it might seem inconsequential, but it's a big deal for the company, with B'twin almost being a household name. Decathlon say, however, that such a move was necessary because of the sheer number of bikes it now produces. The ranges have been split into Triban and Van Rysel bikes. The Triban bikes fit under the 'cycle tourism' category and suit beginners through to advanced riders, whereas the Van Rysel Ultra range is for those who have a performance element to their riding.
