Wheel building

[konaman1]

Can anyone recommend me a good wheel builder in the sussex area?

l need a new rim fitted on my rear wheel which l'll supply.

Any ideas how much it would cost?

Cheers.

I've read on this forum that Martin at my local LBS (City Cycles in Chichester) is something of an expert wheel builder. However, I've never asked him to build a wheel for me, so I've no personal experience.

Chichester might be a bit too far away from you though...

Used to live in Chi and Martin is a cracking wheel builder. Moved to Horsham now and can highly recomend Andy at AD cycles, he's build me 3 sets of wheels now and is happy for you to supply rims and hubs and builds with Sapim spokes.
