It’s not that difficult. I recommend putting the wheel in a truing stand, rather than in the bike (there are consumer-level truing stands available) and going slowly. 1/4 turns of the spoke nipples. Don’t make big changes—a little at a time until it’s true again.
Most of the time, a spoke or two will have gone loose, and all that’s needed is to retighten it. That works for me. If the out-of-trueness exceeds my skills, I’ll take it to my LBW (local wheel builder). --Eric Norris campyonly...@me.com @CampyOnlyguy (Twitter/Instagram) > On Oct 6, 2018, at 8:28 AM, Lum Gim Fong <john11.2...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Was wondering if this is easy to do for a first timer, or could I mess up the > spoke tension and cause big probs. > > Of course, safety is my first concern.
