I received my front Velocity Dyad rim with Shimano 105 hub a couple ofTforret July 17, 2012
days ago. It made my day to come home and find my new wheel waiting
for me. I headed straight to the garage to make the change. First, I
checked the spoke tension with the old squeeze test. It seemed
uniformly tight. Nice. Next, I put the wheel on the fork without a
tire and gave her a spin. Wow, that's really, really true and minimal
vertical hop too! The only thing left to do was install the tape and
tire. I've put 15 miles of rough city roads on the wheel so far, and
it's as true as it was out of the box. I wholeheartedly believe this
wheel will out live my bike. Thanks guys!
--Update-- I'm as happy now as I was a month ago. The wheel has
over 600 miles on it now, and it's as good now as it was then. Todd
I'm a heavy rider and a clyde of sorts at 280lbs. I knew I could depend on the stock wheels for a limited lifespan. So far I've had FOUR sets (3 road, one MTB) of custom wheels built from both the signature and custom programs. Not one has required a spoke wrench yet with seasons of abuse that I've put them through. All are still in service. I put 50-100 miles a week on my bikes, and the wheels have been 100% reliable. A good set of wheels can vastly improve the quality of your biking experience. This is the real deal with a lot of experience and no BS. Trust in this builder - they know their products. Bitex hubs are an awesome value.Jeremy Watts October 28, 2020
