AndreZA Posted October 14, 2008 Posted October 14, 2008 JB, I read the installation instruction of my XT disc brakes (yes some of us do that) and it says that the wheels must be build with the trailing spokes on the inside of the flange (head outside). I've gone through all my cycling mags and looked and pics of wheels and they all differ. I know that when I had road wheels build the Sheldon Brown way it was also with trailing spoke inside. I never had a day's trouble with it. If you look at this pic from Onetime's track bike, it's not even the same on both sides. Does it make a difference?

Red Zone Posted October 14, 2008 Posted October 14, 2008 I take it the trailing spokes are the ones going backwards

Dear Johan,how many fingers do you usually use when handling nipples? From your experience you can surely also make a good statement in regard to how much pressure one should apply when adjusting a nipple. Rough or rather gentle? Thanx.TheLegend2008-10-14 05:45:16

Spies everywhere nowadays. Were you in that class? Muddy I actually thought of you this morning, believe it or not. There I was, standing in front of a class of final years with one particular cutie in the front row staring at me with big brown eyes as I explained how a spoked wire wheel supports it load. I proceeded thus: "At the one end you have a J-bend that hooks into the hub and at the other end... (flash of Muddy here), you have an ermmmm, special nut that screws into the rim. Had Muddy been in the class he would have cracked up three times at the mention of no less than 3 rude words in once sentence.
Thug Posted October 14, 2008 Posted October 14, 2008 I think Admin needs to write a script that refuses to allow JB to post any reply that is not the minimum of 150 words in length.
