I know a guy in Holden who is on his own now. I have used him for a couple of repairs including putting a new hub in my 29" bontragger rim,. He did a great job I would highly recommend him. Pm me and I will give you his email.

Step 1: Go to your LBS

Step 2: a)Ask about Crossmax 29er or Fulcrum Red Metal 29er prebuilt wheelsets; b) inquire about prices

Step 3: Purchase from your friendly LBS

Western Cycle are a good group of guys and could definitely help you out. They are in Danvers, MA

I am positive Bill W @ Western will build you everything in the name of kickass, even if it has 29 in the name.

Just make sure your LBS can get 29er hubs to build on. The distributors have been low on them all summer. Hopefully you find one with them in stock.
