Is it an SS disc hub? Always handy to be prepared for the future. Either that or build it with a braking surface on the rear.

Is the back wheel still nice and straight? If so I'll be doing some rim swappage. I'm going to try some discs because I think I can get some half decent mechanicals for free. If they're shit (as previous experience would say) then it's easy enough to swap back to Vs

Want me to build your new set or you gonna give otters here a beer some port?

Dunno, will see what turns up! Once I've replaced the bearings I think the wheel will be fine, the rim's straight, only has a couple of battlescars. It's been a long time since they were run without covers so I assume the spokes are straight.

The Schwinn is brakeless at the rear but if you want to practice you could swap these bodgeouts for track ends with disc mounts.

I want to try doing at least the lacing up myself but it depends how hard it is to get the parts I want.
