CurtisRider Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 its ridiculously hard! i really wouldn't bother, i spent ages trying and it was still wank! pissing around with different spoke lengths and all, its no fun, just get a matching setup chap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David20 Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 Simple answerIt is not PossibleYeh it is I'm not sure on how to do it but I think there might be a guide in the FAQ section, not sure though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wright Pads Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 It is and it;s hard as what you want it to be but it;s called ''off lacing'' and very few can pull it off properly. I'll do you it but will charge you £20 for the build as it'll cover 40 fags of which i will need in the build as it is stressfull to say the least Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wright Pads Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 Erm dude shut the **** up. I have built 500+ wheels and done rather a few for people here as it goes so re think okay lover!

eskimo Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 There is a topic in the FAQ section. It does seem not too difficult. I'm sure if you build one then you could to it again rather easily. I haven't got round to doing it the other way round. A 32h hub on 36h rim. If you build it radial it will be super easy. If you build it 3x then the tension and spoke setup will be the hardest. I might give it ago tonight as you've reminded me. I will have to post some pics.
