Custom Wheel Building Services

A custom wheel build will give you a stronger, more durable, and more reliable wheelset. It also gives the rider more options when it comes to color, spoke count, lacing patterns, and weight. 

This is a really great option for riders who want specific components, bombproof durability, and unique personalization. 

South Shore Cyclery has a knowledgeable and experienced staff and is equipped to handle all your custom wheel-building needs!

Why choose custom wheels?

Nothing beats the strength, beauty, and longevity of a hand-built wheel. Here are some situations when getting a custom wheelset makes sense:

  • You need a super tough commuting or touring wheelset that won't let you down. 
  • You are looking for a flashy and unique set of BMX hoops or a set of lightweight racing wheels.
  • You're after the superior trail performance of a custom geared or single speed wheelset for attacking the toughest mountain bike trails.
  • You are ready to upgrade to a lightweight pair of road race wheels that will help you earn a spot on the podium. 
  • You have a classic bike that's begging for a restoration project to have it running like new.
