Peeling1979 · 2024-03-29 07:11:26

Shouldn’t be an issue.
On wheels I’ve worked on with internal nips, access is through the holes in the rim bed.
Lukasz in Apex cycles is very knowledgeable. But from memory he’s based in celbridge

Lukasz is very good, but he's based in Kildare town.

Humphries in finglas is often also recommended for wheel building.
