Now onto the wheels! I have just taken the nuts and cone off given it all a clean and degrease looking nice and shiny now and spinning surprisingly smooth. Now my issue is that with the rims (bog standard Araya 559 Rim) there is a definite noticeable concave around it. Now I has hoping that I would be a able to save money by using these wheels as are. But I fear they may be too worn.
Having never built or for that matter majorly trued a wheel before. Would I be able to swap these rims with say a cheapie halo rim keeping the same spokes/nipples, not trying to splash £200 on some new built wheels if at all possible!
