Hand-Built Wheels
If you are looking for a set of HAND BUILT WHEELS, we build THE best wheels you will find, that won’t need re-tensioning of any sort, maybe forever :O) We guarantee our wheels 100% for the life of the parts, meaning that, unless you crash, your wheels should stay true forever, as long as your rim and hub have not worn out. If your wheel is out of true we will fix it for free forever. Simple.
We build any kind of wheels – race wheels, touring wheels, cyclocross wheels, mountain bike wheels, and track wheels. We can spice it up w/ some VELOCITY colored rims, or go classic w/ MAVIC open pros, or super deep H PLUS SON. We also use DT SWISS, SALSA, VELO ORANGE or any other rims you might fancy. As for hubs, you can go crazy w/ CHRIS KING, tone it down a notch with WHITE INDUSTRIES, PHIL WOOD, or HOPE, or keep it simple w/ CAMPY or SHIMANO. You might be looking for DYNAMO Lighting for your RANDONNEUR, we carry all the SCHMIDT hubs and lighting systems, and whatever PETER WHITE CYCLES carries. We also build track wheels w/ all of the above, or PAUL COMPONENTS, GRAN COMPE, SUZUE, MICHE, HALO, ALL CITY or a classic DURA-ACE. The sky is the limit, really. Whatever your heart desires, we can make it happen. We even have colored spokes AND colored nipples…
Do you want to know why a handmade wheel is better than a factory one? Because we only use DT SWISS, WHEELSMITH, or PHIL WOOD stainless spokes, we grease all the nipple seats, use spoke prep on the threads, tension it Correctly, and stress relieve the wheel 2 different times in 3 different ways. Because we know it was built properly from quality parts, we can guarantee our wheels for the life of the parts and you should never break a spoke. The same cannot be said of any factory built wheel. Period.
