Thanks Carl, new to spoked wheels (on a Motorcycle anyway) so this is very helpful. I used to visit a cycle shop where a guy tuned spoked wheels for race bikes. Always looked like a black art watching him work but this makes basic maintenance seem reasonably simple.

Carl ... you have just saved my life! <br>A) I've never had, or had to adjust, a cross-spoked wheel. <br>B) I just bought a 2026 Moto Morini Vettore 450 ... and there is <b>ZERO</b> information available on things like adjusting the spokes!<br>I now feel like I can <b>at least</b> go ping the spokes, un-grub as necessary, and adjust the worse of the worst of them. :^)<br>A thousand thank-you's, sir! -- E-Ticket
