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

you flip your perspective too, tightening the nip is CCW.
OTOH, for tightening a spoke, near side, it's CW.
