Wheels & Wheelsets

Bicycle Wheelbuilding station

Wheels and/or Wheelsets can change how a bike rides and feels even with changes as small as one inch. The most common sizes are 20",24",26", 27.5", 700c. For many years the most common \were 26" for MTB and 700c for road. It has only been in recent years that the industry has started to experiment with different wheel sizes.


A wheel is so much more than something that turns and moves you forward. You have to take a few things into consideration.


- Frame clearance.

- Compatible wheel size.

- Rear axle size.

- Gear speed.

HANDBUILT WHEELS

IF YOU CAN DREAM IT, WE CAN BUILD IT!

Hand built wheels? Tick. What's the difference between hand built and machine built?


  • The difference is the level of precision, with handbuilt wheels receiving more time and attention to getting more perfectly true and round. And getting the spoke tension within a smaller range.
  • Choosing the perfect wheel set for you can be a minefield however, going custom built can solve all of these problems and you can be certain that the wheels you choose are perfect for your riding needs
  • Machine built wheels can also be very good, the differences being very small. All wheels need to pass a certain level of performance before they’re sold, and machine built wheels perform just fine for many riders.
  • Custom wheels and special cases, such as a particularly light or heavy rider, warrant the higher cost of building the wheels by hand.
  • A professionally built wheel should stay truer, longer, and perform better over its lifespan.


Our hand built wheels are all built in store by our mechanic Andy, who has been building wheels for 30 years.
