Handbuilt “Stock” Wheels Ready to Ship
Although most of my wheels are custom built to order, I’ve decided to begin pre-building a selection of my most requested wheels so they’re ready for immediate shipment. This will allow customers to avoid the wheelbuilding queue and the wheels will ship same day as long as they’re ordered by 4pm EST (next day otherwise).
Prices are identical to custom wheels with the same components, although I’m including free cloth rim tape on these to save you a couple bucks. These wheels are built to the same standards as all my wheels, and are covered by my lifetime guarantee. You might be able to find wheels built with similar components that are hurriedly “handbuilt” at production houses (they are laced and pre-tensioned by machine), and I’m not saying those wheels won’t work or hold up. But I can promise you won’t find better built wheels than these, and if you ever have any problems with the wheel components you can talk to one person–me–who will take care of the problem.
The first wheel is a 650B dynamo front wheel built with the Shimano DH-3N72 hub, Velocity Synergy rim, and Wheelsmith double-butted spokes.
I’ll add to the selection as time allows. Next up will likely be a matching rear with a Deore LX hub, then the same with a Tiagra hub so that 650B riders can choose between a 135mm and 130mm rear hub.
I’d love your opinions on what I should add after those two. 650B internal gear hub perhaps. Than onto some 700C wheels.
