Strike each spoke briefly using a screwdriver blade.
Info
The frequency of the sound depends on the spoke
length and spoke diameter.
If you hear different tone frequencies from different
spokes of equal length and diameter, this is an indica-
tion of different spoke tensions.
You should hear a high note.
» If the spoke tension differs:
–
Correct the spoke tension.
–
Check the spoke torque.
