My customer Marty wanted a wheel upgrade for his Trek Checkpoint: he wanted to stick with alloy rims and a high quality, competitively priced hub set. We decided on Astral Wanderlust 700c 28 hole rims laced onto Bitex BX106 centerlock hubs using Wheelsmith double butted spokes and brass nipples. #astralcycling #wanderlustrims #bitexhubs #wheelsmithspokes #handbiiltwheels #gravelbike (at Buellton, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEooYl5lnUV/?igshid=1kk8ojisf0d1c
My customer Gene wanted a slippery wheel set for criterium and TTs: we decided on Astral Veil6 60mm deep rims laced onto Bitex RAF/RAR12 hubs using DT Aerolites. #astralcycling #bitexhubs #dtaerolite #handbuiltwheels (at Buellton, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEWe7OdFGgi/?igshid=19dr2t2bsl9sy
The family that rides together.....well, you know how that saying goes. Justin and Diana wanted new wheel sets for their Specialized machines. Diana went for pink White Industries T11 hubs laced to Astral Cycling Solstice rims using DT Aerolites; with pink decals of course. Justin’s wheels are WI CLD hubs laced to Nox Composites Falkor 36D disc brake carbon rims, once again using Aerolite spokes. Nox Hi-Viz yellow decals match the Specialized logo pretty damn’ well! #specializedbikes #whiteindustries #noxcomposites #astralcycling #dtswiss #handbuiltwheels (at Goleta, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDB8N2YlvuL/?igshid=rxbzea27w22b
Home on the range; my customer Ruben wanted a wheelset for his Santa Cruz to ride fire roads in his native Colorado. We decided on White Industries XMR 6 bolt disc brake hubs laced onto Astral Cycling’s excellent Wanderlust 700c rims using Wheelsmith butted spokes. Ruben is super happy with the result and volunteered a testimonial; The link is in the bio. #colorado #santacruzbicycles #whiteindustries #astralcycling #ilovemyjob #ilovemycustomers (at Colorado) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCD0AAvlzRQ/?igshid=6yf23l0zn7vp
Charles sent me pictures from Philadelphia of his Felt bicycles equipped with new wheels. White Industries XMR hubs on disc brake Astral Radiants got even finer with the addition of Enduro Bearings Zero ceramics. #philadelphia #feltbicycles #whiteindustries #astralcycling #handbuiltwheels (at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_zqxkbF3vL/?igshid=yji368p5q44s
The wait is over: just got word that five sets of silver Astral Radiant rims are headed to my workshop. Last year I got two pair from a limited run and built them up with stunning results. I have a list of people interested in these beautiful rims so I’ll be going through my notes. If you like the aesthetic of a modern silver wheel set, please get in touch soon. They’ll go quickly. #shinyshiny #astralcycling #classicstyle #bedifferent #handbuiltwheels (at Jones Precision Wheels) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_aZ_zRlSmI/?igshid=1owceuu5dhkyi
Back in October of last year, my Philadelphia customer Charles started planning a wheelset for when the ice, snow and rain would disappear in April. We narrowed the choices down to a pair of White Industries XMR hubs 24f/28r laced onto Astral Cycling Radiant disc brake rims using DT Aerolite spokes; a quick wheel set made quicker by Charles asking me to install Enduro ceramic bearings. Like a sommelier laying down a bottle of wine, I wrapped them up and tucked them away for the winter. The word came to send them, which I did; everybody’s happy! #whiteindustries #astralcycling #dtaerolitespokes #philadelphia #sommelier #handbuiltwheels #customwheels #endurobearings (at Jones Precision Wheels) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_VHgUHFmP7/?igshid=1tz388tlksa5r
In chaotic times, it’s nice to have a simple uncluttered bicycle to ride. It reminds me that choosing simplicity is the greatest luxury. Aaron Stinner recently built this beautiful machine for a lady customer; I supplied a wheelset constructed with Astral Cycling Solstice disc brake rims on White Industries CLD hubs. I lashed them together with Wheelsmith spokes to make an all-American build. The rims are only 404 grams each, so this little gem will ride like it has wings. #stinnerframeworks #whiteindustries #astralcycling #discbrakewheels #wheelsmithspokes #handbuiltwheels (at Jones Precision Wheels) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_DBtVql7yd/?igshid=1ar0df5kd2q8u
