• DT Comps aren't worth 4-5 times as much as Cyclebasket's 21p ACI

    But they might be worth 36p each, if you're a brand tart. If your wheelbuilder is charging £1 each for DT Comps, they probably shouldn't be charging labour too.

    2 × Open Pro UST from Wiggle £84.00
    64 × DT Comps + nipples from Rose £34.28
    Payment to LBS for saving you the trouble of getting the parts in and doing it yourself £61.72

    I can see how that's still a worthwhile price if you don't have the time, tools or skills to DIY, but it's at the higher end of the market.

  • Like you say, time and tools are my problems, not enough of either. Also, no quiet place to carry out such jobs. Lbs it is.
