Hargroves Cycles or GA Cycles, both in Southampton - both run CX teams and anyone who rides CX knows that good wheels are critical.Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..0

I've no experience myself but if you see the thread linked below there's some very nice wheels built by Rock and Road in Southampton.

These people build Swiss wheels and claim they can also build any wheel you want and are quite local to you.

Yep, Adam at Solent Cycles in Fareham.
He and Joe (now at Silverfish Distribution) built two sets of MTB wheels for me and a road set and they are true, reliable, robust, light and excellent value.Trail fun - Transition Bandit
Road - Wilier Izoard Centaur/Cube Agree C62 Disc

Am very much in agreement. Superb service and brilliantly build products. Well worth giving them a call to discuss what ever you have in mind.0
