RIMS
AND
SPOKES
A.
Checking
for
Loose
Spokes
Loose spokes can be checked by bracing the
machine
off
the ground
so
that the wheel
can
spin freely.
Slowly
rotate the wheel and at the same time
let the metal shaft
of
a fairly heavy screw-
driver bounce
off
each spoke. If
all
the spokes
are
tightened approximately the same, then
the sound given
off
by
the screwdriver hitting
the spokes
should sound the same. If one
spoke makes a
dull flat sound, then check
it
for looseness.
Check each spoke
for
tightness.
