I really want some sort of silly laced wheel to give my bike a bit more character!
I like snowflake designs, but have no idea if they are strong enough, how hard they are to build and if I need special spokes?
As you can tell - I've never built a wheel before, although me mate does them all the time, but only standard lacings.
Can anyone else lend some advice before I attempt?
Cheers!
