Thanks to Ric from Wheel Fanatyk for scanning a series of articles on wheels and wheelbuilding. They cover a lot of ground that will interest wheelbuilders new and old. Download in PDF.
These are the books I own about wheels and wheelbuilding. If you know of others, let me know.
Brandt is canon but may be too scientific for introductory purposes. If you’re new to wheelbuilding, I recommend Musson as a first resource — inexpensive, approachable and remarkably complete. I built my first wheels using written guides so I think it’s practical and realistic.
