    yeh I hate crank bolts coming loose, not sure if you tried it already or not but loctite, its like a glue that holds bolts tight, that seemed to work for me, if not its just making sure the bolt is uber tight, and maybe replacing the bolt

    that was a pretty good deal, well done!!! yeh you need to make sure that you tighten the top bolt completely, and then do up the bolts on the stem, if this doesnt work you may need to get the headset tightended, if you take it to the local bike shop it shouldnt cost a lot, if there is a competant halfords worker its something small like £8 well worth it, hope this helps let me know how you get on

    They arent bad to be honest, but people say they are very common, I like them, prefer a custom, but hey it does say the hassle and you dont have to wait, I was looking at both the P1 and the P2 and I honestly beleive that the P1 is soo much better than the 2 basically who needs gears, makes it heavier and means there is more to go wrong, I have test rided a P1 and they are pretty good, for the price the spec is pretty good, Great place to start! But a custom is so much more fun and you get to ride your bike not one that someone else made, but at the end of the day its down to you, but both ways would give you a good bike! Hope this helps Matt
