Just built a wheel, and although it’s not fully tensioned yet, it’s a good guess that the drive-side spokes are too long by one mm.

I can feel the spokes under two layers of rim tape (Velox Fond de Jante).

Two-inch tires will be mounted and run at about forty psi.

Is it worth the effort to unlace the wheel and start over?


No.
Whizz off one nipple at a time and put a washer or two under it. Use
a power screwdriver where you can. if after tensioning, the spoke
still protrudes so that it could show through the first tape, then
file or grind it flush.



Any advice appreciated,
