I know that someone here used to turn their own spokes. What I really wanted to know was if there is a cheaper way of doing it. What I mean is, the tool is about ?60 or more. Is it possible to use a die? in which case what sort of thread is it?
I have a modern wheel. I love the rim, but the hub is useless being a 8t. I think this would fook it up a bit
So I just bought a hub that will work with the sprocket.
Tank hub. However, I am nearly certain that the flange (lol) on the Seventies tank hub is quite a bit larger. Thus I would need to cut the spokes I have and re thread them. Hence needing a tool to do it, that doesn't cost more than a wheel. This is the last build I am doing, so buying one would be pointless.
