Anyone know of a good experienced wheel builder West London/Home Counties? (Not in a shop) No need to tell me how easy it is, or that I should go on a course, or that I can see how to do it via a video on whatever website! I just want to use a professional – Thanks!

    A well established shop will have an experienced wheel builder. Why not a shop?

    Don't think anyone will start telling you to learn how to do it on here.

    I'd build you a wheel if I were closer to you!

    Most shops will want to supply the parts and not just do the build and I already have the parts

    Can't speak for your local shops but mine (Icycles in Innerleithen and The Hub at Glentress) are more than happy to build stuff if I supply the parts. I would be very surprised if your local shops weren't the same

    I have just had some wheels built by Harry Rowland - absolutely brilliant, he is very easy to talk too and extremely knowledgable about his craft. The wheels were couriered to me in a secure and well packed box. He lives in Ramsgate, kent and you can find out more info on his website www.harryrowland.co.uk. You can see a review of his wheels on this very site - go to bikes and gear / components / wheelsets and filter his name under brands. Enjoy.
