I live about an hour from prowheelbuilder.com and was at their shop Tuesday, 1/15.

Richard the owner repaired a dented American Classic wheel for me. Everyone said the rim was toast but he was able to fix it with some metalworking tools.

He had three of his PWB house branded wheelsets ready to be packed, all using Bitex hubs. He weighed the Terra i22 disk set and the scale agreed with the weight claim on the website. Based on what I saw at the shop and what I've read about Bitex, I would ride them any day.

I ordered a set last night () but upgraded the hubs to Industry 9 because they were on sale.

Bike Hub Store also sells Bitex but I wouldn't hesitate to call or email Richard if you wanted a set built.
