Kemsing Bikes offer a bespoke wheel building service. Rims, hubs and spoke can be selected by the customer or advised by Kemsing bikes to create a hand made bespoke wheel. Currently, here at Kemsing Bikes we’re specialising in a line of touring and ‘Gravel’ wheels combining super-strong rims from H Plus Son, DT Swiss and Ryde with Sapim ‘Strong’ Spokes, 3-Cross lacing patterns and rock-solid and highly serviceable Shimano Hubs. These wheelsets make for perfect winter training and gravel riding.
