I lose half turn all the spokes i see the rim is stayed wobble i deside to lose all the spokes but the rim stay bent. That i try to found out if bent rim can fixed and how. Truing the wheel or i try truing is not helps straighten the rim
I am currently working on a built wheel that needs truing and the spoke tension is all over the board. I was able to get it mostly true just by tightening certain spokes but the tension still varied too much from spike to spoke. I have a truing stand, dish gauge and tensionometer so I loosened every spoke until it was wobbly and started to tighten each spoke as if I were building a new wheel. Worked out fine in the end but I definitely needed to gauge spoke tension to get there.
