That'll be Bob Warner then Wayne, arguably the best wheel builder in Leicester, not just bikes either, cars and motor bikes too, last time I was in there, he had a vintage wheelbarrow wheel in!!

No sense of humour though..

I charge £15 to lace and true or £4 - 5 just to true (local dudes...  come on down!!   8)  )    £10 is a very good price.  Some wheels can be a real pain in the a$$ though and can take a couple of hours to get right (esp the higher end BMX rims ::)  ).  It's just a time thing.  Especially if you have other stuff that you need to get out!

Cheers
