  • I built a wheel the other day. Using the George French how to. It took on tension weirdly quickly and the spokes looked a bit funny at the nipples.

    Turns out gsport rims are cross drilled or something. In other words the DS spokes go to the holes on the NDS and vice versa.

    Right pain in the ass, had to undo the whole thing and start again. Four cross laced under the third is a bit fiddly.

  • Definitely cross drilled?

    I know it is a thing but I've also had bmx rims where the nipples just want to sit really perpendicular to the rim so you get that strange bend in the spoke that canny be good for anything.
