about your wheels
ready built wheels
This wheelset is built in our workshop in advance so you can receive it quicker. We normally despatch the wheels in 1-2 days and you should receive them the next day.
what’s included
- Wheels are set-up with the axles and freehub you have selected.
- All wheels have tubeless tape applied.
- There are no additional parts provided.
build quality
During the building process all components are bedded in, stretched, and tensioned repeatedly so the wheels won’t go out of true. We inspect, check and finish every wheel with equal care.
handbuilt in the UK
We built the wheels in our York, UK workshop.
