Closed for relocation

Webmaster

As promised on this blog, Instagram and Twitter, SpokeService is now closed for relocation. Business will be suspended during the month of September for packing, moving, unpacking, etc. Apologies in advance to customers who do not receive timely replies during this period.

In October I’ll reboot operations. Stay tuned for updates on timing and other changes.

  • Say what you will about west coast clouds, they cast an even light on the road and that lets you ride (descend especially) faster. #yyjbike
  • RT @bikeasana: Here’s the guy & wife who not only honked at us at a red light, but also threatened to run us over. Way to go bud! #yycbike…
  • The "bike infrastructure" parts of Cedar Hill Rd start and stop variously. Needs continuity now and fixes to suit 8… https://t.co/mv90vHgXHB

  • Today on the bench. Silver spokes on mountain bikes are pretty cool — no matter they're all dirt brown before long. . . . . #handbuiltwheels #bicycle #wheelbuilding #wheelfanatyk #hopetech #hopepro4 #sapim #sapimdlight #sapimrace #stansnotubes #stansarchmk3 #hautewheelbuilding
  • Taking photos to go with the blog I just posted. May be of minor interest to builders who plot wheel tension (site linked in profile, then pick blog from the nav menu). . . . . #doyouevenplotbro #basketoftensiometers #canwelinkyetinstagram #handbuiltwheels #bicycle #wheelbuilding #wheelfanatyk #parktool #tensiometer #workbench
  • The arrival of affordable carbon is the other reason superlightweight alloy wheels are losing marketshare. Like this one in the mail today. . . . . #handbuiltwheels #bicycle #wheelbuilding #lightbicycle #parktool #workbench #morizumi #hopetech #sapim #sapimdlight
  • Customer brought me a NOS Crest rim. Could be the last one of these I'll ever build. Soft spot in my ❤️ for these rims and, unscientifically, it seems people who ride them are all about fun. . . . . #handbuiltwheels #bicycle #wheelbuilding #stansnotubes #stanscrest #sapim #sapimdlight #parktool #wheelfanatyk
  • Boost spacing + asymmetric rims = 💪. Totally would, especially for 1464g. . . . . #handbuiltwheels #bicycle #wheelbuilding #dtswiss #dt240s #lightbicycle #carbonrims #sapim #sapimdlight #parktool #workbench
  • I don't think you have to be a pro to build carbon (but if you can be a pro, do that). Use a tensiometer and you're good. . . . . #handbuiltwheels #bicycle #wheelbuilding #lightbicycle #tubular #carbonrims #dtswiss #dt350 #sapim #sapimdlight #parktool #wheelfanatyk
