It is nice to know that I "SHOULDN'T" have a problem if I get them set up correctly with the right parts.

I have 8 Cog gear pack and I believe I need 135mm Hub width.

Thanks very Much all Again -- What a Great Forum !

Any bike shop cam order the rim, spokes and hub necessary to make a strong wheel. The problem, again, is getting them built (or even just tensioned) by someone who knows what he is doing. Properly built, just about any decent quality 32 or 36 spoke wheel should be sufficient.
