I've got a pair of 29er crests laced up and ready to be finished off ready for the max exposure, and as I've run out of time to do it myself I'd like to hand it over to a shop.

As stans rims need a low tension compared to eyeletted rims, should I be worried in choice of shop to do this? I'm just concerned about them coming back over-tensioned / unevenly tensioned.

I'm based in Shoreham, on the south coast if there are any sh!t hot wheel builder reccomendations that anyone has?

I've built 3 pairs of wheels so far, one of which was a crest 29er and they've all held up well (all have stayed true better than the hope hoops wheel that I bought anyway) so it's not a lack of skill/confidence, just a lack of spare time to spending tweaking that's the barrier here.
