need a new wheel cos the bearing was fucked
there are some reasonably cheap options so going to cost about £25 for that. going to get some more sensible tyres, get it properly serviced and new brakepads etc. so it's actually going to be much more pleasant to ride than before.

Oh good
I did think £50 for a basic wheel was a bit steep. You'll be amazed the difference slicks make.

my old tyres are about as knobbly as they get so anything will be an improvement
I've gone for semi-slicks because I do ride places other than the road occasionally.

thanks for the advice though, it helped to get me motivated to actually do it.
