Dear forum folks, knowledge request please. I have a V1 Pompino whose 135 OLD spacing makes it a PITA to get wheels which are both rim brakes and tubeless. They simply don’t make them off the peg unless I spend more than double the bike’s worth for Hope or Hunt etc. Therefore custom build might be the only route, but then the cost of the wheel builder might also make this economically unviable. So I’m back to square one and considering selling the bike, which I really don’t want to do as it’s a cracking ride. Long way of asking a question, but how much should I be expecting to pay someone to build a set of wheels? Anyone have a rough idea please?
