As wwaswas said. The wheelpro one is great. Certainly worked for me.

+1 for the Wheelpro guide. Used it to build a wheel pair (first in about 15yrs) last week.

And again... Roger M's Wheelpro book is all you need

Whatever you do don't get the Gerd Schraner book, it's a long-winded ego trip and thinly-veiled DT advert. And a useless wheel-builiding guide!

Roger Musson's book for me too.
Easy to understand and all well described.

I'm just in the process of deciding which components to buy then I'll be using it to help me build my first set of wheels.
