[QUOTE="Robert Watson, post: 99127, member: 38"] Standard? Vincent? Same breath? I think not. When I built my A I ordered new spokes and rims from Devon as the originals were well done. The man sent them cross 3 lacing as he (and I) had had an issue with a 19" rear on a post war machine. I gave him a right bollocking over it and when I got around to lacing it went and looked at what I am still convinced was its original rear 19 and guess what -- cross 3..... I eventually ate the slice of humble pie and apologized to the man! [/QUOTE]
