How to 'round' a wheel
Something I never got a grasp, how do you round a wheel.
Ive heard two different explanations.
One is to find the spot that is low. On the truing stand the part of the wheel that sticks out. and loosen a good number of spokes on that side of the wheel if its a 36h wheel loosen ~12. then tighten ~12 spokes on the oposite side of the wheel. This should take out the 'hop"
Two find the low spot or the spot in the rim thats sticking out and tighten the spokes around the low spot effectively pulling the rim towards the hub and eliminating the hop.
also when round or even trueing a wheel is it a better Idea to take the tire off?
