4.3 CHANGING A SPOKE: BASICS
HOW TO LOOSEN / TIGHTEN A NIPPLE?
The nipple can be screwed on in two ways:
With the help of the DT Swiss Spokey, the nipple can
be turned on the inside of the rim. This method is
particularly useful for:
• Small corrections of the spoke tension
• Repairs "on trail”
•
Corrections / repairs to a spoke where the
nipple does not need to be replaced.
Neither the tire nor the Tubeless Ready Tape must
be removed. The disadvantage of this method is that
traces of the tool can often be seen on the nipple.
With the help of the DT Swiss nipple key, the nipple
can be turned on the outside of the rim. This is the
common method for:
• More extensive work on several spokes.
• All work where the nipple must be replaced.
After completion of the work, a new Tubeless Ready
Tape must be installed.
