Can I Build a Carbon Bike Wheel?

This is my first time building a bicycle wheel! It took 3 hours to finish just one wheel with the help of Trevor, NOBL Wheels president. He told me a lot about a wheel I've never even thought about. A wheel is very very complicated and building your own wheels make me love my bike even more!

Thanks Yuka! PS, Yuka doesn't brag about herself much her, but she caught on to the whole wheelbuilding thing faster than pretty much anyone else we've met!

[@VanGirlYuka]

A future employee here👍 Now I understand wheel building better and what to do more than before!!

[@m0nss7erKill]

@NOBL Wheels Hey guys! I have a question. I pretty much build the wheels the other way. For front wheel i start from the left side, and for the rear ones, I start with the right side (because these are the sides with the higher torque, tension, or whatever) For the front wheels, my key spoke is on the left, but I twist the hub towards me, while it looked like, that you twisted the hub against you. And for the rear wheels, I twist the hub against me (just grab and twist the freewheel, to the side that it engages) The spokes at the valve are never crossed, they are just twisted the other way. Is it wrong that way, or there is no difference to which side inner or outer spokes from the left will be twisted to

Fascinating!!! I will NEVER take my wheels for granted again - Very cool! Great content!

Yea that's a lot of tedious work

@NOBLWheels I love the wheel building process. Trevor's analogies are excellent. Learned a lot, especially about the braking forces. Very interesting.

[@ysmrdaichi1473]

自分もホイール組みするけども、トレバーが簡単そうに組んでるのが凄い。 めちゃくちゃ技術力高くて勉強になりました。 ホイール組みの理論は十人十色違うから見てて、ほんまに勉強になった。 簡単そうに組んでるから自分でも出来るって勘違いする素人が出てきそう（笑）さすが社長ですね

[@mattypusplatypus3340]

Great job, Yuka! This was really fascinating, thanks! 😁

[@user-gy3ws3kh6g]

社長さんの説明は何故そうするかの理由も聞けてとても分かりやすいです、自分は大体精度を出したホイールを一晩寝かせて翌日横触れ0.1mm、たて触れ0.3mm以下に収束させて行きます。愛用はDTのスポークです弾力性があってオフロードでは乗りやすいです。しかし色んなパーツが置いてあって夢のような空間ですね。

[@leejohnson8719]

Great video. I knew wheel building was fairly complicated, but watching your vid makes me think that it requires even more patience than I previously thought. It's money well spent having someone else do it for you. :-)

[@alsuth803]

Thank you Trevor and Yuka. This is the most comprehensive explanation of the 'why' wheels are built the way they are. I understand the process now, and can clearly see how to build my own wheels.

[@lilnorthshoreshredder4624]

I had no idea that so much went into building a wheel. Great video, I am sure I am going to be coming back to it when I try to build my own one day.

[@hobmarg]

Actually learned a bit about wheels/wheel building from this Yuka, great video and nice looking product @ Nobl!

[@LuisGonzalez-nx2pn]

This was a very cool video to watch, thanks for sharing! Shout out to NOBL 🤘😎

[@craigmaddison8254]

Nicely put together, both the wheels and the video!

[@nath5440]

Nice wheels and vid, That was super interesting, have never had it explained like that from seecting the rim and hub to final lace up and tensions.

[@strenkp]

Wau, this was very educative and nice edited. Good job Yuka :D You are a gem for girl youtube MTB scene

[@rekamniar]

you're one lucky girl Yuka, to have the president of the company to teach you. That work is no joke. Its like skill and art meld into 1 product.

Chris Kings hubs are premium price and performance 👍🏽 but whats more complex than a wheel build?? This Video edit. It took so much work and came out great. Nice Yuka, -Sam

i like NOBL wheels, amazing job yuka!!

[@joshuabakin3624]

Very interesting video. Thank you for making it!

[@randomname794]

Great video, Yuka! Trevor really knows how to build wheels. It was interesting to know the "why" in terms of the methodology. Well done in building your first wheel!

[@somethingelsehere8089]

Agree. I was impressed with Trevor's explanations.

[@VanGirlYuka]

Me too. He was very preprint and happy to answer all my questions 👍

[@sosoblaq]

Well done young lady I'm not mechanically minded enough for wheel building (no patients) i managed to put a new casset on my new wheels the other day which is an achievement for me so watching you do this in ore 👏💪👍

[@cellphonenut]

That is soooooo true wheels are complex I'd have to say matching up all the components is one of the major hurdles

[@SourPatchPuss]

From the jump Ive always planned on buying Nobl wheels when Im ready. And I think the TR41s are calling my name.

[@cellphonenut]

Wow this guy really knows his trade 💪💪👍

[@todoxe]

patience !, I do believe it could work, not only 8 hours straight up more arming those wheels. I like that

[@tkmtbsouth9337]

That's cool!!

Great video! Which editing software did you use? Is it the same as the previous ten videos? You did a great job explaining it. This was my first time watching a wheel build video.

I always use davinci resolve! Thank you Joshua😁❤️

[@peace0572]

really very nice, only you can start a video by eating 🤣

[@kareemancher]

This is very interesting when I build my wheels tensioning the spokes I will tighten opposite sides, it saves you some time trying to get eggs out of the wheel.

[@chuckfinley3152]

Asymmetric and wheel in the same sentence bends reality.

Wheel building is fun. I do think I need a better dishing gauge than one made from cardboard, and an old spoke....

[@VanGirlYuka]

Cardboard 😂 how does it feel like to ride the wheels you made?

[@barefootmtb1338]

In arm wrestling closer and tighter is better Bad analogy other than that this was a great tutorial thank you. Oh yea those rims are 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@ky94790]

大変ためになりました。sister yuka .リムブレーキしか持って居ないから、前輪がなんで非対称なのかわからなかった。It is difficult to build wheel.I find out.sister.

[@user-yv2cz8oj1k]

Wheels can be complicated to build, but it really depends on the hubs you use.

[@leftymadrid]

Better for a professional to do it... Cause if you don't know what to do, you will end up with a pretzel shaped wheel lol, I know I would, but I must try and true my DT swiss Roval wheels at home to see if I can conquer this task!!! Great video :-) :-) :-) :-)

[@ameraldas3641]

check out the sheldon brown website. if you follow the steps you can build a wheel easy.

Wow, I just checked my bike's front wheel. Damn.
