Wheel Building

[dr nosh]

Just getting ready to rebuild my R80ST wheels.

Akront rims polished, hubs vapour blasted, stainless spokes ready.

Am going to make up a jig to rotate the assembly and then use DTI's to check for lateral and radial run out whilst truing up the rim.

Front wheel easy, I'll just use the spindle.

For the rear, an adaptor to bolt to the wheel with a spindle.

Anybody know the PCD of the 3 bolt hub, or I'll have to measure and calculate?

Thanks

If the swing arm is available, could you use that?
