Q: De-lacing Rims - Specifically Cruiser Wheels

<< < (3/3)

HUTCHMAN:
Definitely get a "SPOKEY" i'm still using the same one i bought the best part of probably 20 years ago. They work a bit better because they make contact with all for side of the spoke nipple.

diesel:
Cheers all, as luck has it one of Lads at work had one that I could borrow.

Took them apart in no time at all (40 mins top) Started as advised at the valve hole, then moving to the opposite side of the rim, then back and so forth, to release the pressure evenly.

glad you got the info you needed.....knowledge is power  :daumenhoch:

diesel:
Thanks for your pm & advise Kevin - really useful

moley:
Yep!!  Deffo Freewheel removal first and then Remove each spoke one at a time, it wont take much time!!

If you have problems then make sure you cut the spoke at the hub end and not the nipple end otherwise ya might be stuck with a shitty nipple stuck to ya rim!!  :LolLolLolLol:
