Wheel rebuild - any experience and opinion?
NB: Originally posted elsewhere on the Global Riders Network and appears via syndication.
Hello,
I was told at the LBS that if I wanted to do something good for my bike, I should get the wheels rebuild.
My first thought was that I had spent a small fortune on the bike - why should I rebuild the wheels, are they no good?
1- I would like to know what are the reasons? Are the factory wheels so much worse than hand build wheels?
2- If you had your wheels rebuild, did you do that yourself or with which bike shop did you have a good experience? And how much should it cost?
I have DT Swiss 420SL (Specialized Customs).
Thanks
Sascha
