Did a search and could not find an answer.
I have a vintage Whizzer and the rear wheel was originally a cross 3 lacing and the sheave nibs lined up fine for attaching the sheave.
I would like to put the original drop center rims on the bike but I am pretty sure that would mean I would have to lace the rims with cross 4 lacing to take up the extra length on the spokes created by the drop center rim (1" less diameter)
Does anyone know if the sheave nibs will line up correctly if I do cross 4 lacing on the wheel?
Thanks.... Wayne
