Welcome to RyanBuildsWheels, Bespoke hand-built bicycle wheels from Bristol, UK. Established March 2015.  Many Custom Cut spoke lengths and types are listed in my store.

I build lovingly laced wheels to perfectly suit your needs, as well as stocking and supplying Sapim Spokes to local shops and, here, online. If you're interested in a set of hand-built wheels then please get in touch.

You are purchasing Sapims Excellent 7075 Alloy Nipple.  Please use the drop down menu to select your colour and quantity.

Aluminum is the material of choice for higher performance. For this purpose, Sapim has chosen the highest aluminum grade possible (7075 T6) for this sort of usage.  It combines light weight, strength and corrosion resistance.  The anodized surface treatment provides various color possibilities.

We offer aluminum nipples in: black, red. Furthermore, Sapim ensures that aluminum nipples receive a special coating that reduce the friction.  The Sapim coating is a unique process that applies on the thread and the nipple surface. Friction between both spoke and nipple and rim and nipple are significantly reduced.
