You should have adjusted the spokes on the opposite side of the wheel,
not just the ones on the opposite side of the rim.

'Splain that one, if you would.


Glad you posted that. I thought it was just me being thick ;-)


To keep things in round.

If I adjusted the spokes in opposite directions (some tighter, some looser)
at the point of the wow, doesn't the "net" tension on that side of the wheel
remain static? How can this affect the roundness of the wheel as a whole?

Tnx
Gary
