cant beat a nice wheelbuild. especially when you have stripped tatty hubs and rims and got them to rock again.

these blue arayas on shimano hubs were caked with 25 years of shit when i got them. spokes were rusty and dull. overall, the wheels were scrap.
strip, clean, scrub, scrape, polish, new spokes, rebuild . . . .

Stodgy:
Nice!

I must learn to lace wheels this year...

theRuler:
it's easy.

if the guide seems hard to follow, copy another wheel.

pickle:
I plan to have a go myself......but i have one question......i have a pair of the same type of rims and small flange hubs.....but what size spokes do i need to buy?

Zippy:
I didn't think about powdering a set of wheels. How does the braking feel afterwards?

I've just ahd a set of Aeros built but I may get them stripped and powdered then rebuilt.
