I have a set of DT240s in Enve wheels, I don't want to bring them just anywhere, hoping somebody can recommend a good shop or wheel builder in the Seattle area?

If you don't mind a trip south, these guys built some wheels for me and did a great job. http://www.rideyourbike.com Wright Bros in Fremont too. http://wrightbrotherscycleworks.com Not familiar with that particular wheelset so these shops may or may not be good options.

I've been going to these guys for years. Very competent and reasonable. I don't know about your specific wheel, but a quick call would tell you. ~z

DIY
Also if you are considering DIY but don't have many tools -- Wright Bros Cycles mentioned earlier has workspace for people to do DIY work on their bikes -- with parts to buy as needed. I used that shop in the '80s when I lived in Ballard and it was great -- they are still there -- must be doing something right.

Thanks two everybody who responded! Two votes for the same shop, and I live near them. Also thanks for the DIY video Randito! I've never done it before and these wheels are too expensive to be my first time, but I have a set of HEDs for beating up on really rough roads and trails, they would be perfect to learn on. Their hubs never rolled as smoothly and I wonder if replacing the internals could fix that. I got a message saying servicing your own hubs is fun in a strange way.
