I like the free/cheap tricks you show. Will try this, thank you!
Hey everyone! Thanks for watching
This was very helpful, thank you!

Need to do my Husky soon. Just did my Yamaha.
and keep an eye on those nipples, if the tire is off. sometimes you can get 1 poking up past the nut, either from someone changing a spoke because it had the right bend, or it's all they had. or it was way out of true and or someone didn't know how to start, it happens. i didn't know about the 3 spoke method. i'll try it out right now.
Good point!!
Ive always heard "only go a 1/4 turn at a time" but you take a few turns on some.. is it not that crucial? I have to replace 1 broken (missing?) spoke.. I'm assuming I get that one pretty tight (ping test) then go around and hit them all?
It’s all about feel really. If you are new to it then a 1/4 turn at a time is good.
Everyone uses a zip tie 😂
Is he tightening those spokes by turning them counterclockwise?? Most things tighten clockwise! Are spokes different?
No. They tighten like anything else.
@@highlandcycles As soon as I needed to know which way to turn to tighten them I was recommended this video. straight to the comment section & see this comment.. God is great!!
thanks for sharing your knowledge!
You bet! Thanks for watching
Where is the link at?
Seems like a weird question but... can this not be done with the tire and tube on? Or could that cause a problem with the rim tape?
You can definitely do it with the tire on but it’s harder to see the bends in the rim.
@@highlandcycles good point and thanks
@@bionicambassador I used car jack stands to put up the rim with a large screw driver as the axel. Wasn't professional but got the job done. Wish I had a torque spoke wrench. I'm sure I over tightened the spokes. Got a good ping on each of the spokes though.
Mine has a buckle but spokes are tight do I need to loosen them all and start again or just just loosen where the buckle is cheers
@@djCarterboi25 rims buckled? With spoke tightening you are trying to work on two axis. Left and right to remove wobble and up and down for bounce.
When I did mine I decided to loosen all the spokes. Then removed the spoke cap one at a time, putting anti seize on the threads and putting the cap back on. Took a while but I feel it was worth it.
Maybe I could have done some sort of loosen only 6 spokes and then straighten it up but the instructions online all seem to be with a rim with all spokes loose to start.
Good luck with the buckle.
