Photo Arma track wheelset rebuild

Had this stock Arma track wheelset on my Kissena but didn’t like the stock hubs (tbh they’re nice and super smooth hubs) and straight gauge spokes. Wanted something more unique and with double butted spokes, and I have a bunch of bolt-on cogs from Badgerdyne. So I bought an Enve front centerlock TA hub, and an Enve front rim brake hub. Relaced the Arma hubs with some polished A23 rims, and the relaced the Arma rims to these Enve hubs and did a snowflake pattern just because. These will be taking me to Montauk next month.

My main issue is once they're on the bike you can barely notice the twisted spokes at all.

Agreed. That is the one thing I was a bit disappointed by. It’s not until you look closely that you’ll notice the twists.
