• Well, its always nice to get something for nothing, so come on down to Sussex (Brightonish) this Saturday, and I will teach everyone thats interested, how to build, tension and true wheels.

    I'll supply the tea, you bring the biscuits.

    Dont worry if you dont have any rims or hubs, I've got plenty we can play with.

    OR

    Feel free to bring whatever you've got, and we can build you wheels!

    Everyones a winner!

  • Fucking good shout Cheesecake.. Wheel building and truing has always been the last dark art of cycle maintenance for me... Just shit luck I can't make it...

  • Well, im sure if you wanted to learn, I could sort something out....

  • good skills

  • nice of you to offer this, good one!

  • This is well timed. Was planning on rebuilding my front wheel as the rim is a dead (or so the shop told me). What time will this take place? Will need to sort some spokes before them and hope my rim arrives in time.

  • Any time on Saturday, I've got a few to do, What length spokes do you need? I may have some.

  • quality idea, where exactly are you based, i'll be at my brothers in 7-dials. Perfect timinng as ive got some home builds that need a good truin

  • I am also interested dude. Chez Harvey?

  • Will you be able to do fixed wheel as well as freewheel

  • Will be able to do any wheel you may want to!

  • Funny, I'm doing a nightride to Brighton arriving Saturday am...and I need to get some wheels built and would love a test run before giving the real thing a go!

    What time, and where?

  • I think I need 279.8mm spokes but need to confirm the measurements.

    Any time on Saturday, I've got a few to do, What length spokes do you need? I may have some.

  • What Hub/Rim do oyu have, and what lacing pattern are you going for?

    @Elvis, If you want to bring those rims from the Workshop Down, I have some hubs we can build to them!

  • I am fixing up a Fuji track front wheel, which I believe has Formula 32H flange hubs, replacing the rim with a Rigida Sputnik with a 3 cross pattern.

  • how many holes? 32 or 36?

  • 32 hole

  • Not sure without measuring the hubs, I would suggest that you measure the hub first...

  • If you wanna head down to this, May I suggest that you PM me, and let me know if you need any parts!

  • My rim has arrived. Just need to sort out nipples and spokes and I am all good.
