I wanted to wait until I had some miles on the wheels before giving feedback. I am a clydesdale rider. I ride hard, but would certainly fall into what Grant Petersen (Rivendale Cycles) would call an "unracer". I love my bike. I chose it and it chose me...but it's not a high end super bike. It's hard to justify spending gobs of money on a wheelset, when really, all you want is something you never have to worry about that fits your style.

Enter Prowheelbuilders.com. I had considered builds in the $400-500 range from my local shop (they weren't really interested) and other online sources. Ultimately Prowheelbuilders.com had the best value, and offered a good strong hand laced wheel for my budget. I been riding these wheels for about 400 miles over varied terrain: road, gravel, bikeway, and single track (including rock gardens). Everything is solid. I have not needed any touch up truing, and I suspect everything will hold together nicely for ages. I wanted a high(ish) engagement hub, and opted for the Bitex MTR--there's not a lot online about this hub, so I'll share here that I am satisfied. The engagement is much faster than a typical factory wheel you'd see on an <$2k bike. The sound is loud-ish, and not unpleasant, but it sounds nothing like a high end hub.

Overall, I am very pleased with my purchase and the quality of work. I'm sold, and will come to Prowheelbuilder.com for any future wheel purchases.

He definitely knows how to build a wheel and treats it like his own wheel. He found out that my internal gear initially wasn't installed properly that causes the untrue. He ordered the part from the manufacture and fixed it for a very reasonable price. I'm glad that I sent my wheel to Prowheelbuilder and didn't go to the local shop who thinks he knows how to build a wheel. (even though spent time on shipping back and forth, I believe that I saved time because I didn't waste my time to find right wheel builder). Also this website is very clear and I love that to knowing what I'm paying for before I decided to build a wheel. Thanks I'm very enjoying my new wheel!
