  1. ๐Ÿ˜• I'm getting ready to tinker with my Kysrium Wheels yesterday and find that both front and rear are "slightly" out of true. Being as anal as I am I decide these need truing. The rear wheel was no worries but when I got to the front wheel I found that most if not all of the spokes are frozen and will not budge. Last night I dripped some Liquid Wrench on several and let sit over night. This morning the spoke still turns with the nipple. Any suggestions? I'll have to get a different spoke wrench if heat is to be applied as I have the Junky Mavic plastic wrench only.

    HELP magic bullets wanted!!!

  2. my ssc wheelset came with a plastic tool that holds the spoke while using the spoke adj. one

  3. ๐Ÿ˜„ Thanks for the post. I went to the LBS and $2 later I walked out with the spoke "stabilizer" that along with some "Liquid Wrench" and a soldering iron for some heat on the problem was able to loosen up the troublesome nipples. All is happy at my house again.
