London Fixed-gear and Single-speed SJS Cycles

Can anyone tell me where the best place to get a set of wheels built in Leeds would be?
I've been to talk to the man and his shedful of Russians (recycle engineering) and I know that bikology does builds for the same price (£20 per wheel), I was just wondering which out of the two would be best or if there were any other good options?
Cheers

Go to Woodrup Cycles on Kirkstall Rd mate

Hadn't thought of them, cheers.
Is it worth the extra money though? From the looks of their workshop price list, it'd cost me 60 quid to get a set built up, whereas the other places Iv'e mentioned would only charge me 40

hmmm £60 is pricey but they will build very strong wheels. Speak to Steve the owner and ask for a fixed gear leeds discount!

I emailed them the other day, price is 60 including spokes so not too bad after all. Ill give the discount a try though, cheers.

hah! how did that discount go?

I haven't been yet, I'm still waiting for my rear hub, its still out of stock with the distributors at the minute. Hopefully it'll arrive soon though, and once the wheels are built up Ill be ready to ride.
Ill let you know if the discount works out.
