Small update: I did a wheelbuilding course yesterday at Rijwielatelier 'de Specialist' which was fun and very enlightening. I managed to lace and true the front wheel, it's a great feeling to have invented the wheel for the first time!
However, when building up the rear I noticed that the Ambrosio rim Bike24 have sent me is in a fact a 32h and not a 36h which was quite disappointing. I'm really pleased with their service overall and shit happens so I'm putting it up for sale and ordered another Ryde Andra 40 instead.. At least I'll have matching rims :-) Theo from the Rijwielatelier had no problems with me returning sometime this week to finish the rear, life goes on
@kjlem Cheers! Chose the Acera mainly because it's cheep and cheerful
