  1. Forgot to mention I built my first wheel last weekend. Shimano Nexus hub dynamo in a Rhyno Lite rim
    with d/b spokes. It's a great feeling!

    Yep, it gives a great deal of satisfaction. I built a pair over the Xmas break even though I could
    buy a pair of ready built wheels off the 'net for the cost of the parts. I find it relaxing with a
    strong sense of job satisfaction when finished and when I return from an off-road trip and they're
    still true despite the hammering I'm chuffed again :-)

    Especially when it stays true for a while :-)

    It's a handy skill. Be your own mechanic and all that.
