FAQ

Do you send wheels in the post?

Sometimes. The majority of our customers are based in and around Perth, Western Australia. For customers within non-metropolitan parts of Western Australia we are happy to send and receive wheels. Using Australia Post this is typically around $40-50 for a single wheel and for $60-80 for a wheelset.

The cost of a custom wheelset varies massively depending on the choice of components.  Most our our alloy wheelsets start at around $1000 AUD. Custom carbon wheels are typically over $2000.

Yes. There two aspects of warranty; the first is our ‘build warranty’, and the second ‘component warranty’. All of our custom wheels are guaranteed for any issue associated with the build quality. We provide complementary wheel truing and spoke replacement for up to three years from the date of purchase. This warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, crash damage, or damaged caused by corrosion. We will honour any manufacturers warranty against a flaw or defect in a product that we supply. Most component manufacturers have warranties from 1 to 5 years. Our warranty does not cover any component (new or used) that is supplied by a customer.

We repair carbon wheels just like any other wheel, however if there is damage (or suspect damage) to the rim, we refer the rim (or wheel) to a qualified composites expert for an assessment. The cost of an assessment is typically between $160 and  $250.
