In this video, we take you through the steps of truing the Yamaha SR250 spoked front wheel. This is the single sided drum brake version of the SR250 front wheel - often found on the Specials and Exciters.
This method is a bit of a hack method, but it seems to work pretty well. Ideally you would have a truing stand and a dial gauge!
**IMPORTANT**
One thing we missed in this video was using some form of anti binding/anti seize paste - like copper or aluminium paste from CRC or LOCTITE. We have used this on other wheel builds but it was just so messy for a demonstration video. Not 100% necessary, but certainly recommended.
And the other important thing is that you should get your wheel checked by a professional once you have laced it up if you don't feel confident about your own effort/skills. We usually do this at the time of having a tyre put it - just for the extra peace of mind. Another bonus of having it checked and a tyre put on by a shop is that the tyre will get balanced on the rim.
