Info
The frequency of the sound depends on the spoke
length and spoke diameter.
If spokes of the same length and diameter vibrate with
a different tone, this is an indication that the spoke
tensions differ.
You should hear a high note.
» If the spoke tension differs:
– Correct the spoke tension.
–
Check the spoke torque.
