From parts bin to your doorstep
1Pick your parts
Choose a Bitex hub, then the rim, spokes and nipples. The builder only offers parts that fit together.
2We measure and prep
Rim and hub are measured here: real ERD, real flange geometry. Spokes are cut to the length your build needs.
3Laced by hand
One builder laces your wheel on the stand. No machine builds, ever.
4Tensioned and trued
Brought up to even tension, stress-relieved, trued round and true, and checked again after it settles.

Specs, pairings and FAQ
Custom hand built wheels with Bitex hubs
Bitex makes light Taiwanese hubs that let a build hit a low weight without the price of a boutique hub shell.
We lace Bitex hubs to the rim of your choice and build the wheel by hand in our Georgia shop - tensioned evenly, trued flat and round, and stress-relieved before it ships. Spoke lengths are calculated from the measured flange geometry of your exact hub, not estimated from the model name.
The Bitex hubs we build with
These are J-bend hubs, which take standard J-bend spokes - the widest choice of gauge, color and material, and the easiest to source anywhere in the world if you ever break one far from home.
Axle spacing has to match your frame or fork, and it is the single most common thing people get wrong when ordering a wheel. We build Bitex hubs in 100mm, 130mm, 150mm. If you are unsure what your frame takes, measure the inside faces of the dropouts before you order, or email us and we will work it out with you.
What to pair with a Bitex hub
A wheel is a system: the rim decides the tire and the braking, the hub decides the drivetrain and the axle fit, and the spokes have to suit both. Start from whichever end matters most to you and the configurator will keep the other end compatible.
Popular Bitex hub and rim pairings
Rims our customers build with each Bitex hub, led by the pairings they choose most often in our build records since 2009. Every rim listed is in the builder today in a drilling and brake type that fits; tap a hub to start that build.

Bitex custom wheel questions
Can you build a wheel with a Bitex hub I already own?
Yes. Choose the supply-your-own hub option in the configurator, ship it to us, and we will lace it into a new wheel with new spokes cut to the right length for that exact hub. You pay for the parts you need and the build labor.
Which axle spacing do I need?
Whatever your frame or fork takes - we build Bitex hubs in 100mm, 130mm, 150mm. Measure between the inside faces of your dropouts if you are unsure, or email us and we will work it out from your bike.
Can a Bitex hub be relaced into a new rim later?
Yes, and it is one of the better arguments for a quality hub. When the rim wears out or cracks, send us the wheel and we will build the hub into a new rim with new spokes. Spokes are not reused - they have taken a set at the old rim's dimensions.
How long will my Bitex wheel take?
Build time comes down to parts availability rather than bench time. Your estimated ship date is shown in the configurator before you check out, so you know the date before you pay.
Not sure what to pick? Email info@prowheelbuilder.com (fastest) or leave a voicemail on 470-253-0929 — you will be talking to the people who build the wheels.
