I taught myself to lace wheels last weekend.
I remember reading stidds - wheel building topic, but the only thing i could remeber was about twisting the hub when a certain amount of spokes were in. I am not on line at home so have nothing but a built set of wheels to refer to ,
Man the first wheel took me about 2.5 hours to do, kept getting all confused with the spoke pattern and having to start again, lol , when I finally figured it out, the 02nd wheel took me about 25 mins.
Now lacing is one thing, these spin like they have been involved in a very bad accident,
Not sure if I have the patience to try and true them as well
How easy is to true the wheels
