About this event

  • 3 hours

This course is comprised of two 3-hour sessions. Students will leave the class with a new wheel built by their own hands! Students may even try for a two-wheel set (if they choose).

This course is only for bicycle wheels. Students will provide their own materials but will receive 15% off wheel materials if purchased through The Hub.

Please come in to the shop before the Sunday prior to your class if you intend to order wheel parts. Wheel lacing pattern options for rear wheels include 4-cross, 3-cross and 2-cross while front lacing pattern options are 3-cross, 2-cross  and 1-cross. Be advised that radial lacing voids most hub manufacturer’s warranties. There will be no spoke cutting in class.

Ask Hub service department staff to help with spoke calculations when you are purchasing parts. Any non-traditional lacing patterns must be approved by the class instructor prior to class
