I used Mick at Langdale's twice for wheel builds as some forums recommended him for wheels.
1st time a pair of American Classic wheels were checked and retrued. These were apparently a nightmare and despite advising of cassette body cahnge from shimano to campagnolo, and supplying this and instructions, found this not to be done when I arrived which meant I had to point out this on collection, wait whilst it was done, and also point out that the dishing would now be incorrect on freehub change and this would also need doing.
Stupidly I got a front AC wheel which was brand new checked and a rear wheel built at Langdales having to wait months for him to find time to do it. When I collected the Campagnolo freehub was still on that was needing to be changed for Shimano and I advised this would then require a check of dishing only to be told it would be fine. These wheels were a belated present for my father, took so long they were supposed to be for Fathers day, may have been for christmas before, who knows.
Long story short my father on receiving his wheels as a present had to try and redish them himself. And I paid £55 for 1 wheel to be built with me supplying everything which seems to be a lot when I have compared with other recommended wheel builders.
On this basis 1 star and I would never go near this shop again. read more
