what if I do it in a criss cross pattern? Like one then accrpss the wheel?

Kinchy:
I don't think you would be able to guarantee even tension in the same way you would on a proper wheel build. To be fair, I could be completely wrong, but it just seems like a bodge when you could spend an extra 20 mins doing it properly

Trail-Boss:
Buy the right sized spokes and then make a trip down here and I can help you out with it.

Are you allowed to make big boy decisions yet?

Edit:

It wont get egged if you do it correctly...
Loosen ALL spokes, then replace as you go working from the valve stem around. I've done it before and IMO its really not that difficult, but its IS a pain in the arse.

Much easier and beneficial to take them all out and replace... starting from scratch is easier than trying to problem solve each little step...

Rusty:
Hahaha I get my license in a few months so well see. But thanks Ethan I'm confident and the way you described it is how I was honna go about it.

BTW-great thread!

Trail-Boss:
You could always wait to drive mommy's car down to orange county and I can make it perfect =D
