Hi all my name is kiwi George I have two BSA bikes a 1951 B33 plunger and a1954 A10 swinging arm which I bought as a basket case 4 years ago I wish I had known about this forum then, however most of the problems were over come including a plunger rear wheel supplied with a s/a rear axle as the brs were good I made bushes to press into the larger dia. brgs to suit the s/a axle 2nd hand rims were purchased from British spares and I learnt the black art of wheel building.
When I figure out how to post pictures I'll put some on.

G'day kiwi george, welcome to the forum.
Wheel building is fun ain't it. Well done for having a go.
