Wanted: Tioga Disk Drive Wheelbuilder

[kingroon]

I have all the Parts to build the wheel, just no Knowledge/Skill to do it.. Who has done it before?

If you are not the man to build it your self you have to sell it ... To me

I can build it alright, just mightn't wanna ride it after

Have you built one then? Any tips?

Sorry chap, haven't build any of those, but I have prob build some 1000 wheels over the years - so this could not be that tricky

Yeah, good idea, just had a set of wheels built at my LBS and they did a cracking job.. Price wasn't so bad either I thought? £100 for a pair of wheels [that included Sapim DB Spokes, Nipples and some rather tasty Specialized Rim Tape ]

Most shops won't touch it Matt. Ive built a couple for myself but not sure I'd want you riding it on my conscience!

Try Monster_Fat

There is a forum member called 'Monsterfatuk' who used to be a mecanic at a local bike shop and has built many a disc drive/Disc drive pro for friends BITD. He may be able to help or give advise.
