Front Wheel

Well, I got a job, which has impacted my ability to work on bikes.

Now that I have settled into work a bit, and nice weather is back again, I am going to try and finish putting this bike back together.

Pulling the wheel apart

Wheel Assembly

Axel grime

Hub rust

Inside rim rust

outside rim rust

Rim strip

Spoke length (279 but spoke tension was low, and many spokes protruded into rim strip

Spoke tension (generally between 15 and 18

Tire is toast

Tire size (looks like 26 x 1 1/2 x 1 5/8 for 1 1/2 pim ???)

Wheel bearing size

Spoke size

I am still undoing all the spokes so I can completely remove the rust on the rim and hub. I was going to reuse the spokes and the nipples, but am not sure now, since the spokes are pretty bent up.
