• So some intoxicated ebaying has meant I've now got 2 pairs of dura-ace 7600 hubs (one rear in 110mm and the other 120mm) on the way from Japan. Last night I ordered some ball bearings and grease as I'll be giving them a service which is a first for me. A couple of packs of 1/4 inch and 3/16inch bearings and 125ml of shimano grease.

    From the look of things it is fairly straightforward but if there is anything I should keep an eye on please let me know!

    The plan is to build one pair up on mavic open pro's to put on an old Mercian Vincitore I've got which has a rear spacing of 110mm. Depending on time (and if Santa brings me a wheel truing stand) then I will try and build them myself so will be back here with a long list of questions ....

  • Congrats...? ;)

    Don't overtighten cup/cone hubs is important & the nuts can be hard to get off.

    Track wheels have no dishing so theyre ideal for a first build :)
