Sorry to jump on your post but I can't start my own thread as I am a newbie and this is similar to my subject.
I have just been down to a bike shop to order some hand built wheels to go onto my London commuting bike.
He opened up a Raleigh Catalogue and said that this will cost £145 and will be hand built by Raleigh and delivered the next day!
Sounds a bit too good to be true?! Cheapest I found on the web was just under £200 (inc p&p) and Evans Cycles do this for £290, Cycle Surgery for £295!! Am I missing something here that I should be worried about?
