I raced with my brother for 10+ years and the stuff you mentioned is right on. We didn't have a spoke torque wrench, which is trick, btw... so I would put the bikes on their stands and take a regular wrench and "ping" each spoke. They usually make a nice, uniform, high-pitch sound. If any had a low, dead sound to them, I would tighten them up, and vice versa (a spoke can be too tight). But your method is better. For the front axel, we would leave the bikes on their stands, losen bolds, spin the front wheel (fast) and stab the front brake. We would do that a few times, and re-tighten the bolts, while the front brake was still applied. That made sure the front wheel was aligned properly, and the caliper/pads were not dragging on the rotor. I'm so happy that your are encouraging people not to be scared (they should always be respectful and diligent) and go for it, no matter how old they are. I'm older know, have a wife and two kids... and I have the itch to go riding again. Keep the rubber side down.
@BijahD4 жыл бұрын
With all due respect to Kyle, he shouldn't talk about things he's not fully informed on....you can NOT just willy nilly tighten or 'torque' wire wheels like that. When you build a wire wheel, you apply an initial torque to the spokes then the wheel has to be 'trued'. Some spokes have to be loosened while others have to be tightened to make the wheel true and straight. Why does he think for a minute that spokes on brand new wheels would need tightening or adjusting from the factory? That shows a real lack of command over fundamental mechanical knowledge and experience. Again, he should avoid topics he doesn't understand entirely. I've seen him do this from time to time and it's a bit disheartening....
@TheMadMagician873 жыл бұрын
@@BijahD To the contrary, you true the wheel and then torque all spokes in a pattern, with the exact pattern/sequence you use depending on the spoke count. You go about a quarter turn at a time on any given spoke nipple and just keep going through the pattern until everything is torqued. This might introduce a tiny amount of lateral run out, but it's far better than aiming for perfectly true with some overtightened spokes and other very loose ones. Uniform spoke tension is what provides the structural strength of a spoked wheel. Dirt bike wheels aren't built to (nor require) particularly precise run out levels (generally 1.5-2mm). After the first two or three decent rides, everything settles. You true it again (if needed), torque again, and from there on out it's just regular maintenance, they don't tend to loosen a lot, but that's subject to a whole bunch of rider and riding variables.
@BijahD3 жыл бұрын
@@TheMadMagician87 I agree with you - my general point is/was is that building a spoke wheel is not arbitrary. It's been many years since I've built them but I used to build them from piece parts on vintage Ferraris. What I remember doing is what I said. It was initial assembly then a process of tightening and truing (yes and sometimes loosening/re-tightening on vintage road wheels) to arrive at and acceptable wheel.

@@BijahD yep, fair enough. You are right in that it's definitely a bit more than just going through and arbitrarily tightening each spoke and then the next one after another, as that can definitely throw the whole show out of whack.

Guys - You can't do what Kyle says in this video. I don't know where he gets his information from but he shouldn't discuss topics like wire wheel spoke torque, etc. without knowing exactly what he's talking about first. You can't just torque all spokes to the same value on a wire wheel! That's NOT how wire wheels work! Wonder why some spokes are not as tight as others on BRAND NEW BIKES??? It's because whoever built the wheels took time to adjust each spoke to where the wheel is 'true' and straight!! I'm amazed at the amount of disinformation out here.

Probably late to the party here but I'd like to add some thing that I believe are as important as making sure your air filter has oil. GREASE YOUR PIVOT POINTS even on a new bike and I cannot emphasize this enough. Often times that brand new bike you just bought has 0 grease on the linkage bearings or swingarm and sometimes head tube. While your doing the above I just start from the back and work my way to the front, remove rear tire and grease axle, remove linkage and grease bearings, remove swingarm bolt and grease the bearings, reassemble. Onto the front, remove front tire and grease axle, remove fork tubes, remove triple clamps and grease head tube bearings (if you like the tension on the bars when you got the bike, mark where the tensioner is with a sharpie so you can put it right back), reassemble and move onto whats shown in the video!

Um, admittedly I don't know much about dirt bikes specifically, but adjusting the tension on your spokes is how you true a rim, so you can't adjust the tension without truing it at the same time. That seems like a pretty important detail to leave out. Having it true is as or more important then having the spoke tension within torque specs.
@allantholetube5 жыл бұрын
I was thinking the same thing Adam. One can't just go in there and start pulling up the spokes without affecting the trueness of the rims. Would need to remove the tyre and true it properly. Although I reckon if there is a spoke which is totally loose, one could safely just nip it back up without too much of an effect. A trued rim would not have any totally loose spokes.

when you buy a new bike the salesperson is supposed to give you a Pre-delivery Inspection sheet look over the assembly section and the service section if they checked the box check to see if they did it. do this before your first ride. if they didn't do something serious enough go back to the dealership to the service manager and show them. get them to fix it. they know they can get sued, or in serious trouble with the company they're a franchisee with in the event something serious were to go wrong. depending on what they skimped on you can squeeze some free merchandise, service or parts credit out of the situation which can make the effort and delaying that first ride you're going to be so eager to experience. some people may scoff at me saying oh you can get free stuff out of this. but that will cause the service manager to stay on the assembly guys ass to make sure something isn't forgotten again which could save some little kids spine life ect.
