View Full Version : Hed tri spoke

I have a slight wobble in my Hed tri spoke. It's definitely not enough to rub on the brakes, but enough to sort of irritate me. Is there any way to "true" a tri spoke (don't laugh) -- or, what might the problem be?

Is it definitely the wheel or could it be the tire? If it' the wheel, I don't think there's much you can do but I'd worry about a crack if it's off by much. If it's just the tire, try remounting it.

Hadn't thought of the tire being out. Will take a look at that.

Hit it with a hammer.

EDIT: DON'T HIT IT WITH A HAMMER.
