Truing a wheel involves making sure the wheel is “true” in two ways. First, you’re looking at the hop: how much does the wheel seem to move up and down when you’re looking at it from behind.
Second, you’re looking side to side: how much does the wheel wobble left to right when you’re looking at it from behind.
The truing stand gives you a way to see precisely how much the wheel is moving in these two ways when fixed in the mount and then watching the wheel’s movement as you turn it relative to a point in space. Then, it’s just a matter of patiently adjusting the spokes to get the wheel straightened out.
In this video, John will first address the “hop,” or the roundness of the wheel. Is it really circular or does it have bulges in it? Then, we’ll address the wobble side to side. Does the side of the wheel seem to move left or right as it spins in the stand?
This is a dirt bike wheel, so the tolerances are a little bit more loose than they’d be on a street bike, but we’ll take you through the process just the same.
