+1 and with a lot of pictures  ;D

SportingGoods:
Rear wheel is laced! Time to get to the truing stand  ;D I put the fork and bar to stabilize my "stand" :)



And here comes the first problem. When I put on the axle, it is too long. I can't tighten the hub, there is 2 mm once screwed to the max. That's the axle I bought from Peter, together with the gift frame. Either the axle is too long, or there is a missing metal piece on the frame.  :o

Disc side

Drive side

Carbon_Dude:
Almost looks like there should be a metal dropout on that side.  Even though I know this has been discussed before.

Get some washers to fill the gap? Seems a bit ghetto but not completely out of the range of feasible.
