I've had serious issues with that company too. Most recently on a pair of sloper wheels with spokes too short. I think I built those wheels 11 times as they kept asking for more and more photos. They kept quoting their 'bible' and years of experience and wanted us to pay for another set to my dimensions. I said that if they were so confident that the ones they sent were correct, then put them back on the shelf and sell them to someone else and provide us with sets to my dimensions. They accused me of lacing them incorrectly (more pics) then the rims must be wrong so I used a profile gauge on them and the originals (more pics) I was really pissed off with them by the end and will never deal with them again or recommend them to others. Whether their system has changed or their 'bible' has been computerised (with all that that entails) I don't know but must have had 30 sets of spokes supplied correctly by them in the past without problems.I can feel my blood pressure rising as I write this! I was doing this as a favour for a mate!Ian
CWC have offered to take the outer spokes back and copy my samples, in the meantime I've torqued them up and this is the extent of the bow. Is it something I can get away with or should I get then remade? I'm just concerned that if they come back wrong or even worse than what I currently have I won't have a leg to stand on.
