Austin, Texas wheelbuilder?

Can anyone recommend a custom wheel builder in the Austin, Tx area? Terry Wittenberg at RT Wheelcraft has previously done all my work but has since retired.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks

No help for local, but OldPotatoe or Ergott on the forum are both well respected builders who are active on the forum... not local to TX but well within shipping distance.

Nelo at Nelo's Cycles and Coffee gets my wheel building business.

VC Slim,
I forgot about Nelo! He made me a set of tubulars back in the day for crits here in Austin. He was at EuroSport Cycles then best I can remember.
Thanks

Not exactly Austin, but Joe Young is in Granbury.
I've had two sets built by Joe and was/am extremely pleased.

A friend of mine uses texas cyclosport for most of his builds. I believe they are in the Austin area.

I suggest you call Bicycle Sports Shop or Mellow Johnny's and ask them for referrals.
