[quote="Jon Hemming"]Swapping a rim is an easy way to start. If you're using the same type of rim you just tape the new rim alongside the old one, slacken off all the nipples (steady on Finbar), swap each spoke over from the old rim to the new one, tighten everything up then do a bit of trueing.
This is what we will be doing in (part of) the first wheel building session.
The two sessions will be held after Easter, on consecutive club room evenings. I have italian classes on Wednesday evenings until easter, so can't do it before then.
PS - unwanted easter eggs will be acceptable as tuition fees in lieu of cake.
