Wheel Werks

Good article on wheel stiffness and design. If you fall in the middle of the range, off the shelf wheels will work. Fall outside that range and custom wheels will benefit you.

Debunking Wheel Stiffness We take a close look at the concept of wheel stiffness. What does it mean? How does it affect your performance? Are all wheels created equal? For more myth-busting, read on.

Up next for a repeat customer and friend. A gravel wheel set to be used on a Moots Routt RSL. White Industries CLD hubs and ENVE 3.4 AR rims. Pics to follow as soon as all the parts are gathered.

Chris King Matte Mango hubs Sapim Force spokes, and NOX Composites Farlow 29er rims. Matching Mango alloy ni***es.
Know what you want? Give me a call. I can make it happen. Not sure what would work best for you? Give me a call anyway, we can discuss your needs and come up with a custom wheel set just for you. I have a complete precision wheel building setup with over 30years experience. As you can tell from the pic what I don’t have is experience in photography. I focus on what I’m good at. I don’t do any other bike repair, wheels only

The new ENVE alloy road disc hubs. Why Wheel Werks when I can buy these already built from ENVE? Experience and craftsmanship. Hand assembled, trued, tensioned by one person that started building wheels in 1980

Some of the last of the non-boost Chris King MTB hubs. Going forward CK is all boost for MTB

What’s going in the middle of all those rims?
Here they are. Heavily leaning Chris King this week. Last week was mostly Industry Nine.

What’s up this week at Wheel Werks? ENVE SES 3.4 disc, SES 5.6 disc and NOX Farlow 29er
These on top of major repairs and rebuilds for some of the best local shops.
Busy week

ENVE 3.4 Disc and Industry Nine CL road hubs. A great combination. I can custom build any Industry Nine Classic flanged hub into whatever rim you want. Create your custom wheel set. I also have the full Industry Nine lineup available as well.
If you are a regular customer at Tune Cycles in Boca you can ask them about a custom build. Wheel Werks does their builds. Wheel expert quality with your local bike shop convenience.

Just finished checking over a Backcountry 360 wheelset for a customer. Even though they weren’t built by me, I give them one final QC before delivery. All I do is wheels. Mainly custom builds. But even factory wheels get an extra check you don’t get elsewhere

Let’s take a look at what’s on the list this week at Wheel Werks. A Zipp and ENVE rebuild, a custom Olympus Speed Works track wheelset and a NOX Citico gravel wheelset for a repeat customer. Another gravel set coming next week with the new ENVE G23 stay tuned.

Latest build for a repeat customer. Industry Nine rear hub and SP generator hub up front. Customer supplied 27.5 rims.

Can you guess what the next build will be? You know it will feature the best track hubs available. But it will also feature some of the best new carbon rims to come out lately. Designed for Aero and designed for speed. A custom build for an Olympus Speed Works team member that lays down serious power and speed.

WTB Scraper rims Hope Pro4 hubs and a rainbow pattern of alloy ni***es. Custom means you get something designed with YOU in mind and the way YOU want them.

I'm starting to see a common theme here. Two Zipps in for hub replacement. The pile of Zipp hubs is growing in the corner of my shop. FWIW, Zipps are my favorite rims to build with. I feel it's the highest quality carbon rim available today. Just wish they sold them by themselves, I think their sales would skyrocket. If you have a Zipp with hub problems contact Wheel Werks. I have available quality Taiwanese hubs starting at $99 or anything else you may want like Chris King, White Industries, DT Swiss all the way to the expensive Italian Extralite hubs. That's what custom means. You get what you want.

Just finished. ENVE SES 5.6 Disc rims, Chris King R45 ceramic hubs in the new Matte Jet finish. Sapim CX-Ray spokes of course $3200 retail and just under 1420 grams.
While I am a dealer for most brands, I am not for ENVE. I partner with Tune Cycles in Boca Raton for my ENVE rims. Feel free to call me or stop in Tune and talk to Ethan or Vince about your custom build.

They are finally here! ENVE SES 5.6 disc rims to be built with the aforementioned Chris King hubs. While I am a dealer for most hubs and rims, ENVE is not one of them. I team up with Tune Cycles in Boca Raton for my ENVE needs. Are you a current Tune customer? Custom wheels can be ordered through Them. I do they're custom builds and major repairs like hub and rim replacement.

Wheel a Werks will be closed due to Irma. Take care of your families, custom wheels can wait.

Another successful hub transplant. This wheel is now ready for the customers boost fork

Remember the red CLD hubs from last week? Well they are lonely no more
40mm carbon disc only rims. Designed from the beginning without brake tracks.

90mm track wheels finished. tires are stretching on the rims waiting for glue
Rest assured my wheel building skills far outweigh my photography skills

Got a couple of projects going at once

Hubs for the 40mm disc rims

These are what's going in the 90mm rims. The new Pro track hubs from Phil Wood

New shipment of carbon rims arrived 90mm deep tubulars for the track and 40mm deep disc only for road or cross. None of the rims I received have brake tracks. Could this be a trend?

New shipment just arrived from Phil Wood
Classic, timeless and high quality are just a few words that describe Phil Wood products

This just in from my customer and my newest build. just in case anyone is looking for a good deal on tires

Pulled off the new 25mm Corsa G+ rubber and replaced with 23mm Open Corsa CXs that I'd saved. Front caliper clearance is much better, whew! Got in just my 2nd ride today (rode MTB last weekend with my son and had work deadlines this week) and I'm really impressed! Noticeably stiffer, feels really good out of the saddle. 23mm Corsa G+ on order. Let me know if there's someone looking for the 25mm variety, $80 for the pair with just 20 miles on them!

After I send out a pair of wheels, I encourage customers to return photos of their new wheels installed. Less than a week after sending wheels to a valued repeat customer, I get the following pic in return . It's great to see how my customers use my wheels and to stay connected with them through their continued feedback. As always enjoy and report back
