kyles_trials Posted November 6, 2007 Report Share Posted November 6, 2007 Hi, i have a back wheel but the hub needs changing, i have brought the hub and made sure it has the correct number of holes. Im goin to try and change it myself, does anyone have any tips that can be useful to make it easier for when i make the change?Kyle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bollo you ball-bag Posted November 8, 2007 Report Share Posted November 8, 2007 heywell firstly check that the hub is the same size so that you can use your old spokes. if unsure give tartys a ringsecondly if your spokes are the right size tape the rims together and swap each spoke 1 by 1 making sure that you turn the nipples the same amount of time. if your not confident just ntighten the nipples quite loosely then take it to your local bike shop and ask them to tighten the spokes and true it for you. they should charge you around a fiver. good luck mate hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
