so i just built up some sweet wheels (king hubs x dt 1.1 x cx ray spokes) and i ordered some velo plugs to use on my wheels. ive used velocity rims (they make the plugs) and mavic rims and the veloplugs fit fine on 3 other wheelsets. however, on my new rims 24 of the 28 veloplugs i installed on the front wheel fell out ( i didnt even try on the back). is there any way to spread the prongs of the plugs? they only cost me a few bucks for a baggie but ill have to wait a week to get a different size- I WANNA RIDE MY WHEELS NOW! is there any way to make the veloplugs fit in holes which are ever so slightly too large? thanks
