I'm 25 miles from PS - high was 97 on Tuesday. Carlsbad ?? You have some of the best weather day-in, day-out in the
entire USA. Loved the motocross and drag strip tracks when they were still there - horsepower air all the time.

Used them, can't go wrong with any of their products or services, they'll even do custom setups to order or they did at one time. Lacing a wheel is one mechanical talent I do not have.

Check around the local dirt bike shops, yet to see one that didn't do wheels.

They built my wheels up with a Ness billet hub and Rk Excell rim with their polished SS spokes. Been great for over 50K, never a loose spoke or any other issue. Buchanan's are the ****.
