Another Snappy wheel

[Josh107]

Hey guys,
New to the forum here, mainly just used it for diagnosing problems so far. Just had my wheel done by resident trimming legend snappy and thought you guys might like a look. I know when I was considering it a few more pictures would have been useful.

I went for silver/grey stitching to match the original insert and perforated leather grips. Came out really well and didn't take long either, pretty sure turnaround was < 1 week. Quality is amazing, can't believe how good the stitching and fit is.

Images are enormous by the way, I think the forum will resize them but you can click to see the original with full detail.

Looks brilliant!

​can he stitch the tdc or does it have to be the leather piece stuck in?

 

[Darren61]

Looks amazing, love this work!

Top dead centre.

I experienced one of these wheels today, fitted one for a customer. Must admit its a very nice touch, I will be investing in one myself!

Ah cheers

I think I will be looking into one once I have a bit more money

How much does he charge and how long is the turn around time.

 

[Josh107]

He charged me £140 including delivery, but I think that may have been more than usual due to the perforated leather grips, when I was doing my research people were saying between £120 and £140, still worth every penny.

As mentioned in my first post turnaround was less than a week.

Knuckles, I can't see why he wouldn't be able to stitch the TDC the man is an artist!

His work is amazing. Ive got an old tatty wheel ready for him to do for me next month

I just had mine arrive back this morning, amazing quality the pictures really do not do them justice.

The price was £120 + £20 P&P.

mine took exactly 2 weeks from me removing the wheel and posting it to getting the wheel back.

 

[Matt26]

A brilliant service. He did one for me, kept me up to date and turned it round in about a week. A legend!

Oh my, that is nice, perforated grips very much to my taste, I'll be looking into this.
Would prefer without the top detail too, I don't think MB leather would look great no matter how well he matched it.
Hard to tell from the pics, is it real cow leather? Does it smell nice?
and how do I drive my car when he's got the wheel for a week?

 

[jesus]

It smells like apples when it's first done!

 

[Josh107]

It's definitely real leather!

I bought a spare wheel to send off so I could still drive my car and switch them over in a few hours. Found one on eBay for £30 delivered.

If theres any interest I can put the wheel I took off in the for sale section on here? Would probably be looking in the region of £20 + postage.

OO I would deffinalty be interested in getting the GF's wheel done if she buys this 172 im looking at
