I wouldnt say it was hard at all. It just takes ages the first time (well it did me anyways). follow a guide for the threading part (keep checking that the wheel looks right), and give yourself plenty of time for truing. I followed a short guid in 'Zinn and the art of roadbike maintainance'. I made a few mistakes and had to unthread aand back track once, but I am glad I had a go.
