I have assembled some wheels back in the day, but so many years ago, I forgot almost all of it. Now I am assembling a front and a rear wheel on a Honda CB100-N in Norway, and this information brings back forgotten skills. Just a great lesson, thanks for sharing! I do have a truing stand that I bought back in the days from Thailand, it helps a lot. Most of those old motorbikes in Norway have so rusty spokes that it is basically impossible to save the spokes. I get spokes and rims from Thailand sent here, so it looks amazing.

How would you true the offset spoke wheels, where adjustment is made at the hub…. like African Twin or BMW? Well explained! Nice job!

Take this from a retired machinist… your measuring tool is not a micrometer, it’s a Digital Caliper. That said, good to see you using that instead of a Tape Measure!

Thankyou for uploading this video. Very informative and you explained how to get the wheel even in forks when you don’t know the offsets. I have had some rims replaced but they sit over to one side and not in the middle. Spacers are correct so it’s the offset. Would the best way to get them even be to restart the process or loosen 1 side and tighten the other until they are centred?

I would say it depends on how far off-center they are. If you have to move the room over quite a bit it might be easier just to start over but if you just need to move them over a couple of millimeters then loosening one side and tightening the other would work. I don’t think you would be wrong either way you decide.👍
