Highlandsflyer,

:shock: Holy moly! :shock:

Today I finished building and packing the hubs, on a couple of pairs of wheels.

The first,



Coda hubs laced to NOS Mavic 221 rims, 28 hole. The hubs (Cannondale brand IIRC) are road ones, so 130 oln, bu--er, hadn't thought of that when I bought them. For my French mtb. With a 135 back end! So not really quick release, more bend the stays in! Should get some MAVIC q/rs for them I guess, to complete the Frenchness! :roll:

The second pair,



Are for my 29er. XT M752 hubs, again with DT d/b/ spokes, laced to a pair of A319 rims in 32 hole.
And yes, my 29er IS rim brake specific! It's an early one

Re:

Nice. Nothing quite as satisfying in bike spannering as wheel building.

Re:

Can't argue with that.

Went out and did 45 miles on the road bike yesterday, with the maiden ride for these wheels,



Stayed perfectly true. Now THAT is satisfying clubby!

I take it the Poodle was running about out of shot when you took that pic?

Re:

Looks like it was a braw day up there regardless if you were out for a pootle or walking a poodle.

Re:

Thank's Mike

That's a bit different ,

Not seen bars or forks like that before.

Looks like you had better weather than us, rain, hail then sun. constantly changing between the three all day

 

[dyna-ti]

Naw, it's been pretty much rain up here too ,and accompanied by a hell of a cold wind. :?

Maybe next weekend we'll be over these squalls.
