Wheel Truing How To
I did a search and found nothing.
Is there anyone on here that has, or can, show us how to true a wheel? IE: The science behind it, how to, what tools, and such. And can it be done on the bike or does one need the wheel vice that you see them use at LBS? Thanks |
Never mind, I found a great acticle on just this very subject. Allow me to share!

Sheldon Brown has a pretty good guide

can it be done on the bike? you flip your perspective too, tightening the nip is CCW. OTOH, for tightening a spoke, near side, it's CW. |

CCW= Counterclockwise
CW= Clockwise OTOH = on the other hand |
