Hi,
I was about to buy a new set of wheels and I got some good recommendations in another thread. I was shopping around for prices and was ready to settle for Merlin builds as they have a good rep for their wheels. I then noticed Evans are doing an extra 10% off until the 23rd July. So for example, a set of Hope Pro 2s on Flows would cost £284. They would cost £317 at Merlin.
Does anyone know if Evans build the wheels themselves or would the Hope wheels be built buy Hope.
Has anyone bought a set of wheels from them?

    If they're hope hoops then they're built by hope and will come with additional stickers. I bought a hope hoops wheel from Evans a few years ago and it was really good. I don't know if they build any in house or the quality if they do, just ask at the shop.
    I love horses, best of all the animals. I love horses, they're my friends.

    Evans dont build wheels for sale (they might re-build one for you or build as a one-off, but not for store stock)
