Sonder Bike Wheels
High performance, durable, low maintenance, uncompromising quality. Our hand-built wheels are built to take mountains of abuse in their stride. When we started Sonder, money couldn't buy the wheels we were riding: tubeless-ready 650b+ boost wide-rim wheelsets. So we built our own.

Made in Britain
Your wheels have a huge influence on the character of a bike. When you are able to look after the whole process, you can produce something truly special. By bringing wheel building to our factory in the UK we increase quality and production efficiency and reduce the impact on the planet by not shipping boxes of wheels around the world.
60-Day Ride Guarantee - love them or we'll give you your money back
If you don’t bond with your wheels, you can send them back for a no-quibble refund within 60 days. We’ll even cover the cost of returns postage for UK orders.
