Jonny Jones Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 (edited) But, my local bike shop has booked me in on the 22nd July to have it built up onto my old skool Mavic D521 lol, does anybody know any other good bike shops around the Farnham/Aldershot/Farnborough area who can do wheel builds for around the same price (about £30 inc. DT spokes)? Cheers peeps! It's literally been years since I've had a wheel built! P.S. - I know Tarty do builds but I would rather just drive the bits to a shop locally P.P.S - Just thought I'd add its all about time lol, I'd like it built way sooner than the 22nd.

CurtisRider Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 £30 is a bit steep!I pay £8 for my builds thats including spokes.Decent spokes alone cost more than that...As for building the wheel, just do it yourself, its so easy and any simpleton can do it!
