You can then copy the other wheel when putting one back together. It sounds stupid but if you are not good at lacing wheels then this could really save you. You could also just take a picture or have an extra wheel on hand. The biggest thing you need for lacing and truing wheels is time and patience. I can lace and true a 20" wheel in less than an hour now. The first time I did it took all day.

Once you know how many holes apart they are you just have to count then off. I planned to do a spoke a wheel video soon.
