Title: 1st ever wheel build
Post by: Frosty on August 28, 2005, 09:20 PM

Used Stidds great guide from the old site to build and also the sheldon brown web site for truing the wheels.

Must have had beginers luck on the 1st wheel, because the 2nd wheel I had to undo twice so it was third time lucky on the spoke pattern.

Any way here they are

Got another pair of rims to build but not sure what hubs and nip combo to use though.

Regards

Paul
