16. HIDDEN WEIGHTS PROGRAM
This program divides the external weight “Pe” in two weights W1 and W2 (smaller than the initial external weight W) located in any
two positions selected by the operator.
The two weights W1 and W2 must form a maximum angle of 120° including the external weight “Pe”, as shown in picture F16.1.
Picture F16.1: Hidden Weights Program: valid and invalid conditions for use in this example the balancing external weight Pe is
indicated at 12 o’clock (H12) but can be at 6 o’clock (H6) or at 3 o’clock (H3): see text
The Hidden Weights program is used for aluminum rims when:
You want to hide the external weight behind two spokes for aesthetic reasons;
The position of the external weights coincides with a spoke therefore a single weight cannot be applied.
NOTE: This program can be used with any Program Type and with any Wheel Type. It can also be used to divide the static weight
into two separate weights (especially useful with wheels for motorbikes).
To enter in HIDDEN WEIGHTS Program, proceed as follows:
