Lacing rear wheel and correct rear wheel assembly

[Bruce Kendall]

I am trying to put a new rim on my bike and ordered a Pro Wheel Racing rim. It said you can use your oem spokes. Is the lacing process very difficult? If this can be performed by myself I would love to have any information on this topic. Another thing is that when I removed my old rim and put it back on it didnt seem to fit right. I am pretty sure I put it back the same way it came off. It makes a grinding sound from the brake side, but I can't see it touching anywhere. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks..

Its pretty easy. Just be aware that the laces that extend to the inner hole are a tad longer. Only about 1/8th to 3/16th an inch.

Grind sound? I cant see how lacing would affect the brake. Unless you really tightened the holy hell out of it.

Ever watch build or bust? Apparently, a lot of people find it real hard, just take your time, and a picture of a properly laced wheel.
