wheelmaster vs The Wheelmaster
Let there be no mistake, there is a BIG difference, someone in China has Hijacked our company name, maybe by accident/coincidence , this does NOT make the annoyance ANY easier to swallow ! let's makes things clear, these mass produced generic wheelmaster wheels DO NOT come with a lifetime gaurantee, DO NOT have ten,nine,or eight gauge spokes, DO NOT take even a fraction of the abuse.
The only positive in buying the Generic wheelmaster wheel is a substantially smaller price tag, BUT, you get what you pay for, and when your life is on the line, and the only thing between you and the ground is your wheels, wouldn't you feel safer on a wheel that has never bent, broken a spoke, or failed in any way shape or form ? I usually avoid making these kinds of comparisons, but when someone is useing your hard earned patented name on their product I just cannot sit around and tell you that it's all good, it's NOT !
Of course this doesn't mean that I won't cut the Chinese spokes out of one of these knockoff wheels and put mine it them, thus giving you a true Wheelmaster "Superwheel", with the best warranty in the business !
Thanks for your time in reading this post and hope to hear from anybody needing wheel help... Jim.........

Good to know you're still out there Jim. Some day I will need more good wheels. I've put about 6,000 miles on the one you built for me, and still can't imagine ever having to tighten a spoke.

Wheelmaster, On your site it says......
"Below is our new Wheel design for bicycles, #9 gauge rear spokes, #10 gauge front, for any kind of riding, 4 cross lace pattern front, and three cross lace pattern rear" what do you charge for a set of those wheels ?
Cheers
