where can I get an Alfine equipped wheel?
« on: 05 March, 2013, 06:14:14 pm »
Or perhaps where should I get an Alfine equipped wheel (8 speed)? I can obviously buy a hub and a rim and take it to $wheelBuilder but I'm looking for a slightly better deal, if such a thing exists. On-one is advertising a complete wheel but with only 24 spokes and this isn't enough. Anyone know of any (reputable) wheel builders who also supply the hubs etc?

they're surprisingly easy to DIY - my first wheel was an alfine and it's still round-ish!  Have you tried Rose cycles for a whole wheel?

Depends on what sort of rim you want, but the best deal is probably a complete wheel from Germany.
eg this one from Bike24 looks decent for the price: http://www.bike24.com/1.php?content=8;navigation=1;product=49494
