Spokes do loosen and require occasional wheel trueing. Weight-balanced spoke rims can go out of kilter as spokes loosen over time. Is there a spoke wrench in the R toolkit?
Spokes on my C
Okay-- i love the look of the C- im not a fan of the cast wheels though - and am thinking of putting some R spokes on her.
I have 2 concerns im wondering if any R owners can help me with:
1. Maintenance- Are spoke rims a pain in the arse? Any problems using spokes>
2. Balance- Is a spokes wheel more prone to vibration or imbalance? My bike is smooth to 110 + and i want to keep it that way...
THoughts? :choppersm
