    Wheel builder in the Bristol Area

    Hello Folks,

    Trying to find a wheel builder called Alain Brown in the Kingswood's area of Bristol. Does anyone know his postcode? Or can recommend another wheel builder in the Bristol area

    Thanks

    Billy

    I used these guys for powder coating in the past. The wheels on my old RD04 were done by them (before I got it so I don't know how much):

    Wheel Building & Refurbishment

    Whoever built the wheels (whether in-house or farmed out) did a nice job.

    The wheels were farmed out too Alan Brown but I heard that he has retired.

    Sorry, I should explain that I owned the RD04 before AlanH but Nick at Reality should be able to confirm if Browners is still working.

    If you're still stuck there is a good wheel builder in Bedwas near Caerphilly who rebuilt my Transalp rear-wheel.... Spokes - 02920 861452.

    cheers, Bob.
