There are places available on the next Bicycle Wheel Building Workshop I will be running in Cambridge on Sat 5 March 2022.
This is a well-established intensive 1-day practical course where you learn how to build strong and durable bicycle wheels in a controlled, supportive environment. Group size is kept deliberately small to ensure a high student-teacher ratio. All equipment is provided, but you can also bring your own parts to build if you want to.
For more information and enrolment details please visit my website: http://www.cambridgewheelbuilding.co.uk/

Re: Wheel building workshop - Cambridge 5 March 2022
Very interested Dave but too short notice for me I'm afraid. How often do you run these?
Edit: I take that back - thought it was Feb not March.
Any sort of wheels possible? If I book for March and want to do some 650b gravel suitable wheels can you advise what parts I'd need to purchase if I want to bring my own parts?

The skills you will learn are transferrable to all kinds of wheels, including gravel-suitable wheels. I am very happy to give generic advice on how to select and obtain components to bring along. However, I leave choice of specific components to you. This means you will need to do research yourself. I am happy to advise on spoke length calculation too.jamm13dodger wrote: ↑2 Feb 2022, 12:23pm Any sort of wheels possible?

I'm happy to discuss your plans further if you email me (see Contact page on my website).
