When I was building bike I have changed dreams about how bike should to be a couple of time - So when you are going to build your bike - do it by yourself you will build bike in really way you wanted and will learn a lot of new stuff: how to build wheels, change BB and headset... - it is not hard as it seems to be. I hope you got the idea even so my English. http://tinyurl.com/mYfiRstcUstOmfiXedbiKe - here's shop list

Bike History

Current Stage Info:
After my rear hub broke I decided to customize it: change color, change rear hub and add some new parts. So here it is - my first custom fixed bike: w/o housing holders and holes for bottle holders, painted with Montana Black cans (BLK 6015 / WILD LIME and some purple one).

What are those novatec hubs like, I'm thinking of building an h plus son rear wheel and if I use the bdw 28h hub the weight of the wheel will be only 930g. So I'd love to know how well they work for you , cause if they don't I'm going for a miche primato that weighs 100g more.
