I'm pretty confident this will be my last full build. It's done, and it looks fine. Couple of spits from the paint but I really couldn't be arsed risking it to get rid. I'm very happy with it, yet very tired. I don't often tire of things (Autism) but I think I have just been doing this sort of stuff too much. No doubt I will change parts around and tinker, but I just don't think I have another one of these in me. Which is probably for the best, given I have no more space.
I've got my truing stand. Sadly I just can't seem to get it right. The other wheels I built were what I consider perfectly acceptable (and I am fussy) but these wheels are kicking my ass. Again it could just be because I am burnt out. I may take them to Custom Riders and get them sorted, we'll see. The cranks are fighting me too. They are really, stupidly tight on the spline. So I know once they go on they are never coming off, I am just praying I can get them on enough first go. Or I will have to literally cut them off and get something else. I have the right side on. Not enough really, but more than enough to be safe. Might have another go later when my hands and arms stop hurting.
