Day 2- building wheels

One of the mysteries of bike wheels was overcome today. Truing a wheel has always been a challenge I have avoided. Learned the factors affecting spoke length and we loaded both front and rear hubs which later became completed wheels.
By end of day, I had actually built these up into a pair of accurate and ready to ride wheels. Great instructors who led us through the process step by step. It took a lot of fear out the topic.




And.....the finished wheel set!
