I just got the G30 cranks with the VBC spider and I absolutely LOVE them. They're gorgeous and incredibly well made and it really is cool being able to change up gearing so easily. Very, very happy
I’m very happy with my WI hubs that I have on gravel wheel set. I also have the BB. That Ti free hub and the bigger pawls make their hubs bombproof with 52 POE. I’ve used mine for 1000’s of miles over the last 2 years and the bearings are still working perfectly and look new. I’m going to build up another gravel just so I can get all the WI kit with HS, cranks, BB and another set of the amazing hubs. Thanks for giving the complete tour. BTW they have great customer service and you know those guys ride and wrench bikes, they know everything!
Thanks for the very detailed workshop tour! been a loyal fan of the brand from ENO to MR30 crankset, M15, Eccentric to XMR Hubset, Single and Double Freewheels. Now the 16 weeks waiting period already justified. Ordered an XMR+ Hubset last November and arrived just this March 2022.
I bought white industries track hubs 10 years ago on a fixed gear bike a built. Use it daily since then, and they still work as good as the day I put them on. I’m currently building mountain bike wheels and I’ll only use weight industries
I’m somewhat disappointed with the WI 17 tooth freewheel I just purchased. It appears that the thread is not on the same centre as the teeth. This causes the chain to gain and lose tension with each rotation when freewheeling. Additionally it appears that the thread is not on the same axis as the teeth. This causes the teeth to “wobble” from side to side with each rotation. I have tried it on a couple of hubs and the results are the same. I’d be interested to hear if anyone else has encountered this issue.
So if Adrian gets sick, the operation stops dead…weird business. Thought much bigger, especially since so expensive. I spent $200 for their front hub, and it was loaded with sharp aluminum shards on inside of disc screw holes…sad. Had to remove with a dremel then repolish.
You're welcome to do as you please, but how are they supposed to correct their processes if they are unaware of a quality control issue? Moving forward, at least you got it sorted yourself.
Imagine what the maintenance schedule on all of the machinery must look like!

Amazing, I will get a crank set for my next bicycle.
Love the “Burning Man is stupid” t-shirt.

Is that Sean Walling (Soulcraft) at the front desk?
Well spotted.
Amazing in depth tour, thanks
Lol 50x24 chainring combo ftw!
You need it 😄

Great tour!
I have/had three sets of WI hubs, love these guys

Why don't you contact WI directly for warranty support vs raining on the parade of this factory tour video?
Cool workshop tour nice to see things still getting made in the US 👍
I've always liked White Industries
"As the pandemic increased out demand." Cool. More people were outside riding and needed parts.
of course I have a WI ENO freewheel, with use every day for years and still like new.
Great video!
Great video.
Very cool
It’s strange to hear White Industries say “big big companies” I’ve always considered them just as high quality as Phil, Shimano and such
Almost imposible to get shipped NZ, any body willing to forward on for me?
Hello Simon, I thought there was a wheel building company in NZ who imported all manner of goodies into the country?
Cool video
I want that shirt!

You should probably voice your concerns directly with White Industries.
@@GravelCyclist no point. They gave me their best. I completed the job and now have a great hub.

I was going to get new White cranks but then I saw his shirt.
