Is it about your new wheelset from The East?

 

Yup!

 

Dishing was out on both back wheels. Anton checked them out and said they just need a good tensioning of spokes and truing, which I'm glad I can be sure if when they come back from summit.

 

Glad I went with anton. What a freaking cool guy!

Interesting, I've recently picked up a set of wheels (freebie) built on American Ckassic hubs and see that they are labelled "Built by Johan Bornman". They seem to still be in pretty good condition.

Depending on when they were built I may have had a hand in assembling them. 

If they are 32 hole the spokes are warrantied for life🤩

Unfortunately for you the shop has passed on☹️.

They look very strong indeed. I will count the spokes when I have a minute, I suspect that they are indeed 32s.

We bought his house In Fairland when he relocated, but we meanwhile moved again. Was awesome to have such a BIG garage!!

When he heard about my bad accident 6 years ago he went past his old house but I wasn't back from the hospital yet... he called / e-mailed me to check all was fine.
