But my reason for confessing is that I just tried to transfer spokes and a rim from one wheel to another in the insane hope that as they were vaguely similar hub gears made by the same company they would have similar flanges...
I hadn't noticed that one was 36 hole and the other 32... That's not the worst bit, when I transfered accross all the drive side leading and had one left I thought I could carry on regardless, the spokes might still be the same length... Took at least another 5 mins before I realised the rims would have 4 empty spoke holes.... Aarrgghhjfff
