? About swapping hubs ?

You can use the old spokes, but they have to be cut and re threaded... So it's probaly easier and less time consuming if you buy the right size spoke.

I really want these wheels...

Dilemma is, I want disc brakes up front. If I replace the hub with a disc brake hub I will have to get new spokes as well, right??

you could get a disc hub to work.You just need a small flanged hub or you could just get a thread on disc conversion kit and a freewheel hub

Bingo....Bango...bongo! Thanks Moto! I already have the disc conversion kit that I didn't use from another build!! SWEET!
 
One question Moto....looking at the front hub on those wheels I want, and the hub you sent the link to, are they the same size or will I need to purchase new spokes?

Thanks
 
Hey Mike contact Venice MotorBikes he is a 3G dealer and may be able to send you a wheel set with a disk hub laced in. He has done some custom wheels for me and he knows how to make it work.
