Just wanted to share a positive experience with Fairwheel Bikes. I ordered some hubs from them which when they arrived had some cosmetic damage probably happened in transit. They dealt with it very quickly and gave me some options which were very fair. When I let them know my preference they actioned it super quickly too.

Needless to say I am very impressed with their customer service and attitude, well done!

+1. I'm having a set of custom wheels built by them as I speak. They have been wonderful to deal with.

LOVE hearing about positive experiences with retailers!! Sooo many flaming posts out there, and feel that's often all that gets reported. What's the saying, Have a great experience you tell one person, have a bad experience and you tell 10 people.

I can add to the chorus of praise. I've purchased four sets of wheels from them and every transaction from start to finish has been great and they deliver a quality product.

Only complaint I have was that while we were in Tucson to ring in the New Year, the shop was closed for 'inventory' all day New Years Eve. :shock:

I just received my custom wheels from FWB. The build is immaculate. The spokes have been cut to the perfect length. Spoke tensions are high and even. I'm very impressed.
