I'm about to build a new front wheel with the Schmidt generator hub, new
rim and new spokes that I recently acquired. I have a truing stand,
dishing tool, and spoke wrench, but there remains the question of what
to treat the spoke threads with. As I see it, my options are:
1. Use the Phil Wood Tenacious Oil in my tool box (you know, the thick
green glop in a green bottle)
2. Run out and buy some linseed oil, boiled or otherwise
3. Run out and buy some Wheelsmith Spoke Prep
4. Another option(s) that I don't know about yet.
Anyone care to comment on the relative merits of each option?
