Yes mate, 194mm are fine for LF hub and Z'ds. I used them on all 4 of my sets  :daumenhoch:

I'm rostered to work the weekend but trying to get a RDX (Rest Day Exchange) mate  :(

The weekends are always the hardest to cover as most, when resting the weekend, don't want to work. I don't blame them.

Half asleep last nite got the front wheel laced.... >:( done X3 instead of X4  ;D
Relaced correctly at 1.00am  :daumenhoch:
Stupidly saw the freewheel sat in the box of bits and school boy error, fitted the freewheel to the hub and now cant get the spokes in  :uglystupid2: off to the LBS today to get removed  :-[
Thanks for all the advice lads   :-*

Lace the one side that you can get the spokes in and you will then be able to remove the freewheel with ease.

If the freewheel has just been screwed onto a loose hub, you should be able to just unscrew it again (it's not like it's tightened with use)

if you're struggling Al, get your wife to do it  ::)

These dont happen to be the Zeds you had on on your StreetBeat are they?

If so I think it explains the reason why your tyre kept coming off!  :-X ;D ;D ;D
