You use a brass or aluminium specific magnet...duhHow does a magnet work with brass or aluminum nipples?
I assume "threw" was a Freudian slip because you ended up hucking the half-built wheel across the shop a few dozen times in the process?It's a PITA. You feed the nipple threw the valve hole. I uses fishing line, needle and a magnet
When they (enough) break. I've no brass nips with which to replace them in any case.Are you going to replace the remaining alloy nipples?
CAPITAL IDEA, WATSON! Invent that, and you will make a billion.You use a brass or aluminium specific magnet...duh
Yup lol I typically charge a flat rate for wheel builds with a free retrue. This guy paid by the hour.I assume "threw" was a Freudian slip because you ended up hucking the half-built wheel across the shop a few dozen times in the process?

Bank transfer process a nice change of pace, eh?Many new toys over the last month, but too busy to install and post. I guess I probably should ride them at some point too?

Is the shaft pre-bent?Here we go again View attachment 174331
Nothing is wrong so far, but I haven't ridden it. I'd like a 375-400 spring, the Fox are too small, but the 350 will work fine in this travel setting.Is the shaft pre-bent?

Always feels like I'm spinning my wheel and going nowhere...if marriage was a bike this is it right here...lolView attachment 174378
depends on what @bullcrew's eaten....How strong wind can it generate?
Assault bikes do pretty well,they can cool you off for sure not a ton but better than stagnant and as you sweat it gets alot better....they have shields you can throw on not worth it, the air feels better.How strong wind can it generate?
