It all works out if you follow the guides bud....Be patient and give it a go, if youre worried about truing the wheels then take the to a bike shop for the final tweeks.  Just dont be tempted to tighten some nipples more than others....It will come together  :daumenhoch:

OwNz:
thanks for the quick replys i will give it a go and see how it works out
now where to find some good colour spokes lol

GavinDavis:
These were the last set I built.....48 spoke, 4 cross pattern:

OwNz:
they look really nice buddy

GavinDavis:
I bought the spoke from cyclesportbmxcity on the bay.  100 spokes were £6 with free P+P  :daumenhoch: ....Then I bought 2 x bags of red Araya nips from another seller for about £10 in total.  

So with a bit of patience and £16 later id rebuilt the wheels to how I wanted them  :daumenhoch:

Give it a go bud, its another learning curve to conquer :)
