Default Re: New to cycling

[QUOTE=DJM83;6841156]So my current ebike is up for sale at work. (good buying, full warranty, first owner etc)
Ive been riding my Norco a bit lately and really enjoying it. I might hold off on getting another ebike for a bit.
Built up some wheels for my Norco (can take em from bike to bike now)
DT Swiss EX511, laced to The new Hope Pro 5 hubs, rear is an ebike hub so stronger (same price as the normal rear pro 5).
Sram GX AXS also.
The bearings in the old front wheel are getting long in the tooth so ill replace them .(Severely edited)
I just stumbled on this branch of the FF, what ever is not covered here doesn't matter!
I have a basic interest in cycles. I now use my sons old Chinese Speedwell. Anyway a few years ago, rather than replace rear hub/wheel I machined up a stepped axel to suit industrial ball race bearings which fitted snugly into the hub. Didn't use the cycle thread made do with UNF. Runs incredibly quietly by my standards anyway.
