Well, I went to the LBS that I bought my D7 from and picked their brains and got some ideas. First, it seems that since the chrome is coming off the rear wheel, it needs replacement. And NormanF's advice to replace both wheels makes sense also. Thirdly, if I am to replace rear wheel, then it makes sense just to take it off, take it apart and easily clean the SA hub. I got a price on an alloy 20" wheel (sans spokes) for $10, which sounds reasonable. However, they said the spokes would be about a buck apiece for 36 spokes. That would make each wheel about $46. Is that a reasonable price? My plan this week, time permitting, is taking apart as much of bike as I can and making sure the SA hub is working ok, then start building up the wheels. Does that sound like a plan?
