cheers Si ... will check that out  :daumenhoch:

Hubs and rims ready ...



spokes on the way from J.T.  :daumenhoch:

managed to get some 189mm spokes which may be a bit long as the normal build length would be 184 ... we'll see  :)

kalex:
Looking forward to seeing these when done

GavinDavis:
Yep really looking forward to these! 

Ed....if the spokes are to long youre gonna have to go for the double twist lol
