Hi there

I have just swapped the hub over from my old wheel to my new (to me) wheel and I have a slight problem. All around the wheel the spokes are sat like this.

What have I done wrong and how can I rectify it?

Thanks for your help dudes.

Alright Rob,

I've built quite a few wheel sets then I take to my lbs to get them trued. All the wheels I've built tend to look the same as yours so you've nowt to worry about mate. I put it down to the rim being slightly out of shape.  :daumenhoch:

Bowlingracecardriver:
So I just need to get it trued and it will all be rad from there on in?
