I started a thread about this in the chat section, but seeing as it's getting started I may as well start a new thread for it.

Re: Overbury's cross fell.

looking good bud, build the wheels and if your unsure get another shop to tension them or someone from here, cannondaleking is a tad good iirc ;)

theres a few vids on youtube, some are great, one chap builds a wheels in less than 10 minutes, obvioulsy he must have calculated spoke lenght etc and tensioned it after but it wont take long. ive done a few recently and find it very pleasing to have done it. practice, patiance and practice
