I've had many wheels built at Woodrups without issues; had some trued at Slipstream on Meanwood Road in Leeds last year and he gave me a 2 page report with the tension of each spoke when I picked them up ๐Ÿ˜ฏ

I also had some 'nice' road wheels built at RaceScene in Barnsley, they're still true after 5 years

Depending on where you are in W Yorks, Cycle Addicts in Rochdale might not be too far (live in Roch; used to work in W Yorks so distances aren't huge). He's built me a couple of wheels which have been excellent.

Must be somewhere in Calderdale/Kirklees though?

Jon king through crosstrax
He has trained most of the wheel builders in west yorkshire and was the man that built stifs reputation in the 90's
He is the best without question

The lads a try cycling in kirkburton have always done a great job rebuilding/ truing my much used/ abused wheels.

There's Dave at Cycle-Fast.co.uk, based in Wheatley, Halifax. He's built a mate of mine a superb pair of custom Hopes, and laced my old Superleggeras onto a pair of Flows for dead right money. Both builds are great quality, and he'll go through options with you. Check out the gallery on his site
