Hey,
does anyone know a good cheap place to get a wheel rebuilt? In the Brighton area.
Snapping spokes like a gud un 🙁
Cheers

Do you want a full rebuild or just replacing some spokes? What hub/rim?
stewart wilson at Baker Street Bikes. Nice man and fine mechanic
Hey,
I need all the spokes replacing. The hub and rim is fine as far as I am aware.
The rim is a DT Swiss 445 D and the hub is a Shimano FH - M525.
Cheers
Ideas on cost???
2nd Baker St bikes.
Think it was about £30ish to build two wheels last summer when I supplied all the parts - they've been true from day 1.
I had a good wheel from Rayment too, though, when Jenn worked there not sure what that they're like now though..
Thanks,
can anybody recommend some good spokes that don't cost the earth. Preferably black 🙂
Cheers
look on crc for DT swiss competition - about the cheapest DT supplier currently. you're still looking at near £40 for the spokes though.
Sometimes it's cheaper to get a new set of wheels - I'd look at Merlion or crc for soemthign a similar weight to yours. They may not be much more than the £70 you're currently lookign at and you get new freewheel bearings etc with a new wheelset too?
