Im trying to get together a new wheelset. Thinking hope hubs, 29er rims.
But.......
I dont know anything about spoke length and cant build them.
Anyone here who I could supply hubs and rims to and then purchase for me right spokes and then build,dish,true?
Obviously would pay for spokes and time etc....
Thanks
Chris
Ps, hubs poss hope bulbs (pair in classifieds :oD ) or pro 2, rims prob Mavic TN719
Here's a radical idea, why not try a bike shop? You know, a place where they sell bike stuff and do things like build wheels for you?
If you are near Brighton I can do it. If not bikeshop sounds like a good plan!
You could teach yourself to build them? It's really not that hard once you've figured out the theory. It's very satisfying to do and helps loads with truing them back up. [url= http://www.sheldonbrown.com/wheelbuild.html ]Sheldon Brown's website[/url] offers great step by step guides.
JRTG, im very local about 6 miles away.
Sounds like a good plan.Email in profile ?
Nice one, thank you.
As for LBS, my guy doesnt want to build them, very good but i get the feeling he dont want to build them.
bunnerscj i'll mail you. not in shoreham by any chance?
LBS and ask him to order some already made up from Hope with Crest rims like I did! 😉
Not Shoreham although I know it well, have some other rider mates there and ridden the cissbury,changtonbury ring routes too.
Live east of Brighton along coast 😆

Confused...
If he's very good, why does he not want to build them and take your money for it?
