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.

Lucky dog you were able to get them fixed. Thought about those PWB house rims...Decided against it when I could get LB rims of a similar weight but with the Onyx hubs I really wanted for the less than Whites/PWB.

You'll enjoy those machine guns pawls. Check your local noise ordinance for compliance.
