I finally got my rims, hubs and spokes, so it's time to also put on the decals! I started boxing them out this evening. Man do I wish I had taken better pictures of the original frame. The decals were faint, but they were there and I could sure use them now. Interesting how Motobecane used such small fonts / text for their name on the down tube. I like it better than the decals that practically cover the entire tubes today.

Wish me luck! This is my first wheel build. Thank you Sheldon Harris for the detailed essay on building wheels, including different colors for groups of spokes!
