Well, just an update,
I finally got a new wheel sorted, and at the same time got a new lockring, sprocket, chainring and chain, as I wanted to go up a few GI and apart from building the wheel I fitted it all myself.
I've already done a good few miles on it last night, and this mornings, no issues with it, and i'm already skidding much more than I ever did, as now I'm not always worried about the sprocket slipping.
I have to say it's a pretty good feeling doing all the work myself, and now that I have the tools I'll be saving a lot of money in the future.
I just need to learn how to build a wheel, but I don't have the time or patience at the moment.
