Wheelbuilder wanted

I am looking for a relatively experienced wheel builder who could build 6 (flip flop) wheels for me, while truing/tensioning another 3 and solely truing another 2 wheels.

Probably a good afternoon's work and I am able to pay for it. Preferably based in London.

If you feel like you could do this, please offer me a price asap!

£250. (Assuming all spokes correct!)

You can drop west london and collect after a week.

There are some actual, experienced, proffessionalwheelbuilders on here. They do not Often go begging for work and are pretty busy if they are good.

Ive only built around 30_40 wls btw.

£249

I am sorry but £250 is over my budget. I have seen shops who do it for £25 per wheel, so cheaper than that..

ok no worries. :)

£251

Ha! you ain't even got time to build yr own wheels..

building 6 wheels plus truing another 5 is not a good afternoons work
that would be a terrible, rushed, finger achingly bad afternoons work which would probably reach on into the early hours of the following day ... if you are lucky

£248

Never did it, so would take myself ages.

Ask @broken_777 on here. He's good and quick.

Paging @arup...
Great builder.
Nice guy.

I was replying to the other guy.. but I undrstand the confusion.

Its not that hard after a few wheels. But I am prone to take ages over things anyway.

I'm making no comment but this is a link posted in OPs response to another wanted ad.

Make your own mind up about "djvden"

I think I'll 'Past' on this one....

My wheel builder takes a good afternoon to build ONE pair of wheels properly, so for 250... Foxtrot Oscar.

I may be interested but can you provide more details, please? Such as: what are the components in question for the flip - flop builds? Are they all the same? Have you got the spoke lengths measured out already and if so how did you get the measurements? Are you supplying all the parts, spokes in particular? Will you take responsibility for the delivery and collection of the wheels to the workshop for the job?

Please tell me your problem with someone selling bicycles?

Hi there and apologies for the delay, have been away for a long weekend.

So I've got Quando 32-H flip flop hubs and all rims are similar 700c deep ones (as this one http://i00.i.aliimg.com/img/pb/838/877/581/581877838_795.jpg). Finally I limit the order to 5 wheels. Have some spokes but still have to buy more and see which length is best (any advice is welcome). Truing would be for the same kind of wheels, while two other tensioning jobs with plain non-deep alloy wheels.

Sure will deliver and collect the parts to the workshop, which hopefully is in or around London.

Please let me know what you think.
