Judgement Call, replace or rebuild
#3
I would have thought servicing a hub is quicker than building a wheel. However, if you've never built a wheel from scratch before, it would be nice to try it out.

I've trued wheels and adjusted the dish, but never built one from scratch and quite fancy having a go. However, I've never actually had the need and it often seems that you can buy a complete wheel for the same price or less than the separate components. :S
