Quality Control

Manticore Wheel Factory wheels are hand-built in our facility. Each is carefully assembled and inspected by an experienced builder. This allows for greater attention to detail in terms of spoke tension, true alignment, and overall build quality. Hand-built wheels are often more durable, balanced, and reliable than mass-produced wheels, which may have less consistent quality control.

Durability and Repairability

Hand-built wheels are stronger and more resilient because they are built with higher-quality materials and careful craftsmanship. If a spoke breaks or the wheel goes out of true, a skilled builder can repair it more easily. With mass-produced wheels, the process might be more difficult, requiring complete replacement of parts or the entire wheel.

Customization and Personalization

Looking for something a little more...custom? Since we hand lace every wheel in-house we can precisely tailor our builds to an individual rider’s needs, preferences, and riding style. If using stock components this often only adds a few days to your order.
