New Wheelz

June 28, 2014

Today, I spent two hours building a new wheel for my bike using the third edition of Roger Musson’s Practical Guide To Wheel Building. It was a lot easier than I thought, and it only took so long because I had to keep referring back to the instructions. Next time will be much quicker! It was quite crooked when I was tightening the spokes, but some truing and tensioning got it all straightened out.
