A wheel builder!

After a cheap wheelbuilder to build me up a front wheel for me?

I'll supply the rim and hub, all I need is a skilled chap to build me it with spoke nipples and spokes.

Only issue is I need it reasonably quickly (2 weeks)

totally forgot the name of the guy years ago on here that did it, for some reason cannondale man rings a bell, could be total BS though Jezz, will see what I can dig up on a search for you.

[EDIT] almost got it right, found a pm in my saved from like 6 years ago. Cannondale King, quick look at his profile says he's not visited the site in like 2 years but you could PM and there is an email address activated on his profile too. I only bought a box of nipples from him and built my own wheels, but I wouldn't dream of charging someone to do a pro job. He had a pretty good rep for building wheels if I remember

Called Danny - he has a website, but he's not local!

Hand crafted wheels dot co dot uk or similar I think...!

Which is what I did. Never built wheels before. Took an hour or so. I then took them to my LBS for finishing/truing. Worked really well. Very chuffed.
