Wheelbuilding

 

Tim has more than 10 years experience in building wheels. He has constructed them for Olympic athletes and national champions alike. Despite there being a multitude of ready made wheels now available, a number of cyclists still prefer the ride quality of a hand built wheel.

Using top quality components, it is possible to rival and beat the weight, quality and performance of a ready-made wheel with a hand built one (check out the example below!). Any combination of parts can be used and he can recommend them for a given purpose. Tim uses DT and Sapim spokes since they are currently the best on the market.

Tim also has the skill to repair/rebuild any proprietary wheel, such as Kysriums, Mavic or Campagnolo.
