For over 30 years, Fair Wheel Bikes has been hand building custom wheels according to each individual customer's needs. We don't see why that should be any different just because we're not in your town. So whether you know what you want or need some guidance, our professional wheel builders (with a combined experience of over 50 years!) will be happy to help you find exactly what will fit your needs. Our chief wheel builder, Troy Watson of Ligero Wheelworks, has built over 10,000 wheels in the last 20 years and earned a reputation as one of the finest wheel builders in North America. Troy holds certifications with DT Swiss and Shimano and has built production wheels for both American Classic and Real Designs as well as countless custom wheelsets.
If you know exactly what you want, simply enter the component choices into the comments field and we'll review and confirm compatibility of the build and then contact you with a price quote and estimated delivery time. By requesting this quote, you are under no obligation to make a purchase, so let your imagination run wild.
On the other hand, if you are unsure of your options, enter any details you think are important into the comments field. Let us know your size, riding style, tubular/clincher preference, and what sort of rides and events you'll be using them for. Also let us know if you have any aesthetic preferences, or some ideas of price, weight, material, etc... This will be a good starting point; from there we'll contact you and collect more information and then put together several options to help you obtain just the right wheelset for yourself.
Typically, the price for custom wheelset is equal to or less than the total of its parts. In the event that all the individual wheel components are purchased from Fair Wheel Bikes, it is our policy to include the assembly labor at no extra charge.
