1. i went to several shops (i am currently in LA, but only for about 10 days..) and everyone had 28 hole front hubs.. but noone had 28 hole back hubs (well, none that are under $300)

2. i saw that article on sheldon brown, but was wondering if there was any other info besides that.. that lacing patten is quite pretty, but this is the first wheelset we've built, and that is an advanced techinique..

3. the shop we got hubs from said that we could do it with a 3 cross pattern, but it was late and busy in there, so i guess some stuff just slipped his mind, cuz it is SO not possible to do that, especially with only one spoke length.. we tried several times, but it just doesnt work


4. we are going to another shop today to look for either 1 36 hole rim, and 1 28 hole hub, so it will be 28front/36back.. or a set of 36 hole rims..


thanks for the help tho.. and the funny yelling at me
