Great Job. Ordered a Velocity Chukker 40 spoke and Velocity Rear Disc Hub with Sapin Strong Spokes for my 29er. Rode the bike fully loaded with food and water, Racks and my 120kg body from Perth to Sydney (4,700km). My major concern was that I had popped spokes previously on a 26 inch 36 spoke wheel when riding Cairns to Sydney and was worried about extra forces that would come into play with 29 inch. This wheel was bulletproof and attracted the attention of other touring cyclists on route. Good job team, thank you. Can't wait to find an excuse to buy another set. If you are a big bloke and to tour or trek with lots of gear, start your build with a set of wheels that will go the distance. One happy camper! Carl Johnston Australia

I have never owned a set of custom wheels. Honestly, didn't think I could tell the difference or that they could be that much better. Well, 7 months later after ordering and riding my custom NOX carbon wheelset, I get it. 1356 miles on my Scott Spark wheels are true with no spoke tension loss! A lightweight wheel can be strong and compliant built with the skill, care and guidance that the folks at Pro WheelBuilder provide. Thank you!
