assembly problem

[Ant]

Dear r.b.t,

I recently took my ten speed completely apart and am having trouble putting it back together. I
managed to get the front wheel on, but couldn't figure out how to do the rear. I decided to look for
telltale assembly indicators, and settled on matching threads.

Screwing the freewheel threads onto the bottom bracket was easy enough, but now the wheel won't
turn. Is my hub defective?

Most Sincerely,

Anthony Anagnostou

Tighten all the spokes and reglue the saddle clamp and everything will be fine - Ъ×

Leave it out in front of your house overnight, the bike fairies will fix it for you.

Is it a 10 speed or a 10v Campagnolo Record one? No matter what, which speed is it in?
