spoke tension.

(1/1)

oberonspacefruit:
re spoked my first wheel yesterday, and it spins pretty true.

how tight should the spokes be though?

being a musician, i have tightened the all to roughly the same tension, so they play the same note when you ping them.

any advice?

harris:
just get a good wheel and feel them i do mine until they creek.pritty dame tight.

Sanmarcopizza:
I would make them pretty tight. Bare in mind that you will need to re-tension them once it's been ridden.
