New drivetrain for old bike

    Hi

    New poster to this forum. looking for some advice.

    I have an old GT avalanche 0.0 which ive used for a number of years for my 16 mile city centre commute. The drive train has become pretty worn and the chain is regularly slipping at the moment.

    Im looking to replace the drivetrain; rear derailler is okay but maybe new jockey wheels.

    Could anyone recommend where i could get the parts. Ive no problem doing it myself so its really just to buy the parts.

    Any good places local or online where i could get these? not looking for the most expensive components, somewhere in the middle.

    thanks!
