I've swapped the brakes from white to silver and routed the cables...

I didn't read Joff NORTY40's advice with full 'understanding' ... he advised going 4x and said that 194 spokes would be good.

I did 3x  ::)

and all the spoke are too long  :)

OBVIOUSLY I understand NOW which is LIFE... and the way I have always done things  ;D

rebuild time  :4_17_5:

So what changes with a 4x build? obviously it crosses 4 spokes but is the rest the same?

Its ok fella, everyones first time is shlt, you'll get better with practice

ED209:
Thanx chaps... I still gaze at it with lurve...



Cables are all routed now but not taking any more pics till I'm 100% happy - I can't strip the rims as they we heavily sandblasted when I got them so SBD was the only routed and he saved them.

Its not black chrome ... is BMW Sepang bronze paint with a tinted black lacquer ... its my second go at trying to get something close to the original Ni-Bronze.



Big Dan did me proud... and I even sent him the forks this time  :angel:
