Got some hope hubs I want building into a summer road wheel set. Just curious how much building fees should be?
I guess cost of rims + spokes + labour
Any ideas how much? Or can anyone recommend a midlands based builder?
My local quoted me £70 to replace my rim and hub with DT double butted black spokes, that price is for the spokes and labour (stripping old wheel and rebuilding.)
£30 labour per wheel plus what ever spoke you choose
£20 per wheel plus spokes. Having a set built at the moment which is £95 for labour, Sapim spokes and brass nipples.
Evans does 'em for £30 each inc Sapim DB spokes.
Two Wheels in Stourbridge have a great wheel builder called Baz, normally £20 labour but if you buy spokes + rim, they do a bit of a deal.
Whereabouts in the Midlands? I'm Loughborough based and would do it for £25 a wheel plus spokes and rim costs.
Or have a go yourself, it's very therapeutic & free!
Im with rocketdog, its a skill once acquired youll wonder how you ever lived without it and immensely satisfying.
£30 + spokes here.
