after the last set of wheels where i sat there, stripped them, cleaned each spoke then polished each spoke i vowed never to do it again.
waste of time, to save 20 quid on a new set. cleaning up the nipples is a fiddlely job too.
rebuilding wheels is always nicer with a new set of spokes
i always keep the old ones just in case though
