A wheel stand!

Built it today for balancing the wheels and to make sure the spokes gets correctly adjusted. One of the old wheels is mounted on it on the pics just to test it, the wheel itself was a bit unbalanced and a bit wobbly...



And but the wheel hubs are done and the bearings are mounted inside them so it's time to get these wheels together. Also gotten two new Heidenau K34 19 tires, better for when riding solo., no pics alas.

Working on the wheel hub...

Got some extra spokes now to replace some old one, also my wheel balance thingy and some other stuff.

Tried to screw on the the outer lock ring before I started cleaning the bearings and things that should be inside but it was impossible to get on and then I saw that I hadn't covered those parts up before the powder coating, neither the brake drum so here's what I've been doing with a pincer and a knife.
