thanks trigger

mickwinf:
ok so i have rebuilt the front wheel and am in the process of truing it up. I have mounted it in the forks and used a wire pointer, it is now round and runout is looking good so getting near. the problem is i forgot to measure offset on the old wheel, i know they are central to the hub but when i look at it in the forks should it be in exactly the centre of the gap between the fork legs? it measures about 5mm difference between the rim and and the fork so should i adjust it to be exactly equal?

mickwinf:
re -adjusted to be exactly central so all good now. ready for new tyre and tube.

K2-K6:
Nice work and looks good.

When you look at them close up the structure looks primitive,  quite amazingly effective though for such basic components.

Laverda Dave:
Looking good. It may not be riding weather but rebuild progress keeps us all going until the sun shines  :)
