I ended up rebuilding an already awesome Lapierre Carbon Cyclocross into a gravel bike... and it came down to the wheels. The super limited clearance of space within the frame forced me to do a deep dive and hunt down the just released WTB Vulpine's back in November.J.R. Reher February 22, 2022
But that left me with the wheels. When I acquired the bike, it had an old system of Mavic Aksiums on it. The bike wheels needed a more robust upgrade. I canvassed the local bike shops to no end and then... discovered the online wheel building sites. I had NEVER done this online. Pretty sad, huh? It's like, wtf? Kind of like purchasing a couch online. How do you know it's going to be comfortable or even work?
First, i was over at Wheelbuilder, ha... mentioning the competition. Their site was similar and had some of the same components and close price points but then I thought hmmmm, maybe I should google another, just to see if there was somewhere else.
Reddit led me here.
Why did I choose this site? Because this form was more specific with data points and asked for body measurements and what you're using this bike to do? I dug that more detailed and custom approach. It felt like being in a tux shop and a tailor was standing right beside you.
Through trial and error of resubmitting and changing my order details over and over and over (because you need to do that! Compare and research EVERYTHING...) I seemed to discover the ideal wheel set.
Then I clicked submit. That's a lot of money you're throwing down, online, to a computer generated form you might think. What happened next surprised me.
Someone called me. Then they talked me through the specs and the build. And then we established an email banter back and forth... Debra was AMAZING to deal with. She's your go-to for questions.
So...if you're on the fence, email them. Talk to them. Tell them your concerns. Ask them all your questions.
If you think this is a fake review... definitely not. Go watch the inspired by a true story film I wrote - THE RIDE on Amazon Prime. It's based on the life of BMX pro John Buultjens and stars Ludacris and Sasha Alexander. You'll see my name at the top of the credits at the end of the film (there are no credits in the beginning of this one...)
ProWheelBuilder has built many wheels and wheelsets for me over the past 8 years: for my commuter bikes, my road bikes, for builds I've done for friends, for my wife's bikes. High-end boutique builds and bomb-proof snow and salt builds.Andrew Kelly October 08, 2020
Each time, the wheels are meticulously laced, true out of the box, stay true for thousands and thousands of miles, rim tape perfectly applied, and packed and shipped in pristine condition. I've sent them new hubs, used modern hubs, vintage hubs, and bought hubs from them. Each time, the build and the experience is flawless. Their turnaround time, both for their builds and for their customer service, in returning emails, is beyond exceptional.
Their prices are fair, transparent, and their online wheel design platform is second to none. I never write testimonials, but folks who have never worked with ProWheelBuilder before need to know just how fantastic they are. I cannot recommend them highly enough.
