  1. I live in Canada though I'll be in the US in August. I'm looking for a new set of wheels (upgrade from the stock wheels on my Giant OCR 1) and I thought that if the wheels are made in the USA I wouldn't have to pay duty when bringing them back to Canada (free-trade agreement).

    Any know of some good wheels made in the USA?

    Check out Flit too.

    I'm wondering - couldn't you buy from any US mail order company regardless of which country they get their warehouse stock from?

  4. Why not get a set of custom built wheels? You'd likely end up with wheels that are a lot cheaper while being just as good, if not better, than boutique wheels.

  5. Check out ROL. Hand built in Colorado.

    I've had mine on for nearly two years and close to 20,000 miles. I've only knocked one out of true once, and only slightly. And they roll better than any custom wheel I've ever used...

    Hmmm, you sound depressed. I think you should kill yourself, and when you get to hell, tell [censored] that you're a worse [censored] than him (even on his good days), you [censored] loser, piece of [censored] [censored], spammer. Go fark yaself in your pee hole with a barbed, cyanide-tipped water pick, whilst simultaneously listening to Barry Manilow, Air Supply, Bruce Hornsby, David Hasselhoff and John Tesh

    It depends what you want. If you want 'real' wheels, which are affordable, and have aluminium rims with lots of spokes (say, 28 or more), then just about any bike shop in the country will be able to build you some. It ain't that hard -- I build my own wheels which I race on, and I've never even worked in a shop. :p

    However, if you want some bling wheels, then, well, there are a million more expensive options.

    Then there's the in-between route, on which you have a builder, uhm, build bling for you.
