Wondering if anyone knows a good wheelbuilder in Atlanta. Bought a Mavic OP 32 3x that keeps going out of true. Took it to a local LBS and went back out of true after the first ride. Bought the wheel out of the box, so may be a poor build.

Scott Hodge, owner of Addictive Cycles, is the guy manning the Mavic car at the TdG. Alan Smith at REI inside the perimeter. Only two folks I would consider. Both have been doing it for a long time and build old-fashioned wheels that last a long time. -Mike

I've also had no problems so far with my rear wheel built at Bike South in Decatur.
