neelst Posted February 4, 2011 Author Posted February 4, 2011 Thanks Ghostface!Thats exactly what i needed!
Johan Bornman Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 The recommended spoke tension of most most these factory wheels is given with such a huge variance, that the data is just about useless. I suggest you just build the wheel to normal wheel standards and don't bother with the tension. Build it until you get a nice clear ring from a plucked spoke and you're in business. I sometimes smile at the way they give the tension on rear wheels for both left and right. If you get the tension right on one side, the tension on the other side, when the wheel is centered has to be in the range. There is no variance, the one is dependent on the other. Ghostface, shame on you for revealing the industry's most secret passwords. Only 17 million people knew that until you went and lifted the veil.
