a few months ago, i toasted my front wheel. for the last couple of months, i haven't been in a
position to have a close look at it, but last week i put it in the truing stand and found it had a *very* bad s-curve over a small area (about 1/4 of the circumference, about an inch of total side-to-side wiggle). a little work trued it up with no problems, but i'm wondering if that's a wise thing. truing it required loosening spokes on the already loose side, as the rim had been permanently deformed. am i just asking for another three months with my upper body immobilized by doing this? question #2: if i rebuild, i'm planning to re-use spokes (old rim was a moskva, new would be cxp-33. close enough). how bout nipples? is this another Bad Thing? tia for any help, and merry christmas and/or season's greetings, whichever may be appropriate. hg |
