Need help getting my 21 laced
are you sure those spokes will work? that is my only consern, when i lace wheels i get the X patterns all done and use small zip ties to hold them in place, slide the rim over the top then one by one go around in the same direction, then go the other way, flip the wheel and do it again. i just barely start the nipples, be sure use use nipple oil as well, but after they are all ont here then i tighten them in and true

When I did mine I put blue painters tape on the inside of the rim to keep from scratching my powdercoat and numbered the holes 1 through 4 with a sharpie. It made it a lot easier to get the right spoke in the correct hole. It took me a few tries too.
