wheel building service
« on: September 12, 2010, 06:35 PM »
bit story here but my next door neighbour has built few wheels over the months for me and has just been made redundant again .hes 62 so has decided he will probably have to retire ,he fetched me a nicely new built wheel round today and asked if any of my mates i ride with need owt doing he can offer his services at very good rates .
so i am posting here letting you know if you need wheels built i can get them done for you .the rim i just sent him was slightly used but perfectly straight and hes laced oit to a suzue hub and its mega tight and runs perfectly true this is done by hand not in bike shop .

im quite happy he can do the job very very well but gotta say if u send old wheel rim and expect it perfect this doesnt always happen so be waqrnmed about this too .not every rim can be sorted to run perfectly true again if already used .

he was looking at £5.00/£10.00 per wheel if everything is supplied right and depending on it all being new or not

what ya reckon guys

he did some Araya 7x rims laced to some Suzue hubs and did a perfect job for me.  :daumenhoch:
