Hed Ardennes wheels with DT 240 hubs

Wheels. The things that keep your bike from scraping on the ground.

We have wheels, we build wheels out of parts from scratch, we can repair the wheels that are on your bike, or we can get you new (or used) replacement wheels.

Prebuilt wheels from the big brands offer a lot of performance and value. Mavic has been supporting bike racing for decades now (heck, Paul even worked for their race support program back in 1997), and we support them. Shimano makes pre-built wheels that are incredibly durable and really well priced. DT has dozens of different configurations to fit all of the latest rim widths, wheel diameters and hub standards.

Aero carbon gravel bike wheels with a generator front hub? That sounds like something we’d build up from scratch, but we could be wrong. Zipp has a pretty diverse product line-up these days.

A bit about pre-made wheels that you can buy on Amazon… There are a ton of little companies out there doing their version of the latest and greatest wheel.  Those brands always compare themselves to Shimano, Zipp or DT. They typically say that their product is lighter, stronger, or better priced.  The truth is, the big brands are big for a reason. DT probably makes the benchmark in every wheel category out there.  While the little guys may be able to claim “lighter”, they won’t be as durable as the Shimano product.  Someone may claim “stronger”, but I bet they’re heavier.  They may say “cheaper”, and I bet they are… cheap.  Make your wheel decision easy.  Go with a legacy brand, or have us build something from scratch and you’ll get the right wheel.
