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