Default Re: I got a new Whizzer and a bunch of questions

Actually the wheel building is the part I do know but it will not be totally traditional. I am more interested in functional and making it go good. Next year I may decide to build a frame for it because I do not like the cantelever frame. Nostalga does not enter in when you have ridden as many miles as I have. Performance trumps looks every time. The reason to change wheels would be only to help the pedal assist. I may just add a derailluer and a 6 speed cog and spread the frame to match.
