After a half decent wheel builder in Essex as I snapped a damaged spoke on the training wheel yesterday!

Les cycles in Canvey any good??? just gave them a call £20 for wheel truing and £1 for spokes! seems cheap!, worth remembering only me training bike

Ill do it for ya..

I could do it too..but I'm miles away form you.!!

£20 seems a bit steep to me..!!

Cheers chaps! found a shop up the road £80p per spoke & £12 for truing ! 1 day turn around off all next week so all good

That's more like it...

Ok so the wheel builder at Cycles Uk in Romford noticed some hair lined cracks when the spokes was removed so a new rim was needed! As I was going on holiday the next day & didn't want anything to flash as said its just my training bike they ordered up a Mavic 317 & new set of spokes as 9 where damaged! They was meant to rebuild it when I was on holiday but ended up building it this morning, which was abit of a pain but all sorted now!



Hope Ti hub still going strong!
Went out for a 20 mile blast down the country lanes! All seems good
Cost £65 all in...

I've had similar happenings at Chelmsford cycles uk. Took my old Marin in for a service and said I was away for a few days, they said it will be done over this time and ready. Went back to pick it up, but bike was still where they left it, not touched. So got them to do it whilst I shopped near by, don't take any of my bikes back there now....

Sounds like a car MOT job Simon. You go in for a simple job and they always find something else to add.

Yeah mate you know! ! Been out on the old girl alot & seems all good so far
