I know it's lazy and i know i should learn to do it myself and it's certainly on my 'list'. But for the moment, can anyone recommend a good wheel repairer/builder in Bristol. My rear wheel has gone out of whack causing a buckle and the dishing to go awry resulting a a wobbly wheel that doesn't sit central in the rear triangle.
i will learn one day but with the dishing issue i don't think this is the place to start.

Si or Jon there will be able to fix or advise. Si is a superb wheel builder.
of course.. Sioffofwebbs as well
Ross Taylor of Taylored cycles. He did a brilliant job on my road wheels - he charged £50 for the pair IIRC (I supplied the parts).
Cheers guys. Have used Bad Ass before and very impressed with them, i'm in North Bristo though so a bit of a trek for a simple (hopefully)wheel truing job. Will try one of these recommendations.
Matt down at Bristol Dropouts has done some for me before. You can get him on: workshop@bristoldropouts.com
I have a jig and a book if you want to have a go yourself?
Thanks for offer wrecker, but the thought does scare me a bit. Ifit were just a buckle then would take you up on it, really don't know what to do with getting the dishing right. Might get the Roger Musson book though and have a read up. Just to see what i would be up against!
Drop me a PM, I have some documents which may help.
