A good, but not great wheel building book Brian Nystrom I bought a copy of Jobst Brandt's "The Bicycle Wheel" when it was first published in '81 and got Roger Musson's "Professional Guide to Wheel Building" E-book a couple of years ago. I bought "The Art of Wheelbuilding" on a whim to complete my wheel building "library". Frankly, I'm somewhat disappointed. If I didn't own the other . "Limited Utility" according to snailmartyr. I was surprised at the limited utility of the book. There are a few pages dedicated to lacing up a Limited Utility I was surprised at the limited utility of the book. There are a few pages dedicated to lacing up a 32 hole rim but honestly, the wheel building pages on Sheldon Brown's website are clearer and an overall better illustration that what was contained in this book.

Talks about the history and technical aspects of wheel-building. Much better to buy this book than waste hours finding unreliable information on the internet. All the internet sites seem to have the same data as the book, just not as well communicated or entertaining. Also a good book to look at before buying wheels.
