My wife wants a bike to ride. She wants a coaster brake. I have a 2-speed kickback hub, a Univega Viva Sport the right size for her and some bike-building experience.

My plan is to lace up a 27" rim to the kickback hub & install on the Univega. Looks like I'll have to squeeze the frame a bit to get the hub to fit. I've read up on wheel building (thankyouverymuch Sheldon, what ever roads you are riding now)

What problems & pitfalls should I be wary of? Nothing is getting removed from the Viva Sport unless it screws on.
