Yep, guess what bike I have...
A langster.
Balki, I have no idea what hubs they are, but whatever shit ones come with the langster, they didn't even have sealed cartridge bearings.
I've been meaning to get a new wheel, so it's no big deal, though I wasn't planning to spend the cash on it at the moment.
So yeah, the question is whether to get a wheel made for me, or whether to go down the path of doing it all myself. I guess I've got this far, so it's the only logical step. Cheers for the link by the way.
I'm not going to have time to build a wheel today, nor do I have a shop near me, I'm not in London today, so I guess it will be freewheel for the marathon ride, then sort it next week.
