It's looking great! Love the colour and the Wheels are

Considering other the odd few 36h and 48h bmx wheels I’ve snowflaked for a drunken dare or a bet here and there i had not built any 26” snowflakes since the 90’s right up until a few weeks ago but you never forget repeating “over, over, under, twist” in your head and you’ll never go wrong.

Happy to talk anyone through it on email or phone if they get stuck. They’re really not hard to do but I do get they divide opinions just like Porsche’s do between Ford Focus and Vauxhall Astra owners who never owned or driven one

I’m not sure if Instagram links works but my original first built snowflakes on another 89 clockwork I was using over summer.

I'll have to give it a try at some point - I've built a few wheels, but never tried this design
