£250.00
I’m a believer that wheel building is something that anyone can learn.
Far from the ‘dark art’ that many would have you believe, creating your own handbuilt wheels is an accessible craft, albeit with technical subtleties and knowledge that isn’t always easily gained.
My ‘Wheelbuilding Weekender’ classes give you the tools, time and access to expert knowledge to build your own set of dream wheels or further explore your existing skillset, whatever your level.
They also make an excellent gift and you’ll receive a gift card in the post for the recipient if so.

How Does It Work?
Choose your dates from below and add this course to your basket. I’ll be in touch to discuss the wheels you’d like to build in plenty of time beforehand. You’ll pay the tuition cost at the point of booking, and any component costs once we’ve agreed your dreamy new paid of custom hoops.
You’re also welcome to supply your own existing hubs and rims but most students opt for brand-new components throughout; all of which I can supply.
Starting costs for a pair of sturdy yet basic touring/training/commuting wheels might be as low as £195 upwards, whereas those looking to build more performance-oriented gravel, road or MTB wheelsets should budget somewhere between £350-650+.
Boutique and carbon builds are by no means out of the question for even beginners as I’ll be on hand during all stages of the process which remain exceptionally similar for all, and those looking to craft something truly special should expect components prices from £900 or more upward.
If you’ve any more questions then you can contact me here, I can’t wait to greet you in my new home in Wales!
All of our Ready to Roll Wheelsets are lovingly laced at the RyanBuildsWheels workshop in Bristol, UK. They’re made to order and can be shipped to almost anywhere in the World.
Our Ready to Roll Wheelsets are made from a handpicked collection of our favourite hubs, rims, spokes and nipples. These parts have been carefully selected to offer us the best quality of build and our customers the best quality of ride. They’re built to balance strength, weight, longevity and value.
These wheelsets offer all the benefits of handbuilt, custom wheels without the added cost of a fully bespoke build.
