[quote="Grahame"]Sylv, yes we can rebuild it (better, stronger, faster) as part of the demo.

I was planning to build a new back wheel for me to use on Colorado this summer, but redoing yours will be fine.

No please do your own wheel, it was just in case you needed one.

But it might take longer to get the adequate tension though :wink:

[quote="mrP(Boonen)VT"]a couple of turns when screwing on the nipple could make a lot of difference.

Fnarrr, snigger.

Would now be an appropriate time to ask about flange size?

Or if butt-ed spokes will be used?
