Grrrrrrrr bull in a china shop.

Guys looks like i have made a boo boo just sitting here lacing up my wheels and the spokes are to long???? looks like the rear was laced up diff to the front in using the 3x tech can anyone put me on the right track.

Cheers

So you are lacing the rear using 3x and the spokes are too long?  Have you laced the front?  If not have you made sure the spokes in the rear are not for the front?  Otherwise will the rear spokes lace 4x?

just do the same as you did with the front but go over 3 spokes and under 1. rather than over 2 and under 1
