Exactly what I was looking for is what you teach in this vid. Excellent example amd simple. Thanl yiu so much for taking the time and making this tutorial video. Very appreciated!

If anyone is confused at 3:20 by "spark" he means spoke. By tightening a spoke, you make a spoke shorter, by loosening a spoke, you make a spoke longer.

I just ran into a metal pole today and went over the handle bars. This occurred on asphalt. I am 58 and weight 215, so it made a nice thud when I landed. Besides a bruised hip and ego, I bent my front wheel. It looks nowhere near as bad as the wheel in this video so I will give it a shot. The moral of the story is try to avoid running into metal poles. I will try to learn from experience.

Spoke nipples are usually held into the rim by their slotted heads. It help when truing to visualize it as if you were using a flathead screwdriver on the spoke nipple heads to screw them in and then just keep the spoke nipple turning that same way with the truing key. This shortens a spoke and pulls the rim towards the side of the hub from which it originates. Truing can only do so much on a wheel that is truly bent. It is easily possible to reach the limit of spoke tension before the wheel gets anywhere near straight.

You should have used the wheels own tension to straiten that wheel by pumping the tyre up and side banging the rim because the spokes are allready set just the alloy outer rim was bent you took to it with your wrench worrying only about the side to side axis not the up and down movement so you egged your rim

@@ConservativeCalifornian1032 You didn't get scammed my friend. You were being sold a decent wheel that won't end up all out of whack like this wheel was. $195 for the whole bike go ahead and fix the wheel like this. Get used to it because you will be doing it alot. Get used to replacing spokes as well because without a spoke tension gauge you will be breaking spokes as well. You're better off just getting another $195 bike when the wheels get bad. I've been around all kinds of bikes for 50 years now. Quality bikes start around $600. The rest you get what you pay for. Not scammed. Look real close at the quality of the bicycle and you'll see.

Never ever truing a wheel that is more than 5 mm wobbly. Why??? Cause the material is stretched and you need to heat up the rim in order to normalize the material. If you force truing a bendy wheel the the tension in the spokes will vary to much. Tension is usually between 100 and 120 kilogram. On a forced bendy wheel the tension can vary between 80 to 160 kg. and then spokes start to snapp off.
