Central Wheels Nipples too big!

<< < (4/4)

DomP:
It's a shame as they seem to have been good once going by recommendations on here but I had similar experiences both times I've ordered

Bryanj:
Back in the late 70's they were excelant supplying good rims and everything but i guess the owners/management has changed

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
In defence of CWC I take my bare hubs to them to build,having obtained a quote by email for rims, spokes & tyres.
That way any issues are their problem.

Only issue I had with my 400 was the front tyre was fitted the wrong way round, they collected the wheel by courier and delivered it back f.o.c.

PS For the relatively modest labour charge for building a wheel I have peace of mind.

Hats off to those who build up their own rims, respect.

Johnny4428:
Just to Finnish up on this, spokes for rear wheel arrived today. First ordered on 11th Dec. I’m afraid I cannot recommend Central Wheels to anyone unless you can be sure that they are sending the correct spec parts to you first time.
