OK, thanks for the advice, will do. If there was something i needed to do, i wanted to get it started now. I am still waiting on the rim tape and freewheel removal tool that i ordered, I can not wait to get this going already!

By the way, I also received my digital calipers. Back fork is 123.5mm and the new hub does measure in at just under 126mm. Its amazing how much of a difference 2.5mm can make...

Also, another can on works I opened with these calipers. My old Brake cables are 1.6mm, and the shift cables are 1.5mm. Originally figuring they would be standard, i have 1.5mm and 1.1mm cables (consecutively) to replace them. That shouldn't be a big deal right? I also have new housing to go along with them.
