Wheel Truing Tutorial
yeah...coming here asking RBT for comment is off course useless and
demeaning but aside from that. GARGLE FIRST. get some air in your lungs. breathe deep. rising falling rising falling does the Tutorial teach wheel truing. Not really. You speak, move your hands, saying turn the nipples on the right to bring rim right, turn 4 (six six six but less with incerasing torque...) I live in an asylum. Occasionally bringing the bike out onto the "common area" for a rolling wheel true before heading out to DO SOMETHING. Other asylumites comment: "how does he do that, the bike shop...." "He's done that for years..." Ever try telling a rider, not a serious rider off course, the rear wheel is out an inch, the tire is wearing away...then tutorial turn tight right, loosen left, the rim goes, bend straightens? whaddya get? a glassy look. synaptic seizure. like when I say ERD ERD... Without a graphic following a "survival in the artic" monologue, graphic showing turns and rim movement singularly and symphonically, in brilliant color. A graphic pierceing the synaptic seizure, you wind up saying: this is a cat, this is a dog, and this is my mommy. "That's" whose listening and "that's" what you're telling "them." A reciprocal relationship. As it is, a "survival" op, best to simplify the message and forget the trimmings unless trimmings are meant to impress the Campy/carbon/ glacier crowd of materialist excess. oooooo lookit the shiny wheel? Yeah, simply and explain turn right go right.... but there again a graphic upside and downside. INVEST IN THE SOFTWARE! excuse me I'm gonna throw up.... |

Wheel Truing Tutorial
HI KIDS! I'M AUTO DISSMARK (COSTUME-looks like?) AND I'M GONNA SHOW YOU HOW A BICYCLE WHEEL IS STRAIGHTENED First we need a bent bicycle wheel. KNOCKOUT REDHEAD BRINGS IN WHEEL. Auto holdsup straight wheel and bends it into a pretzel. Short 15 second video of crazy kid jumping his bike, trashing the wheel. Kid wipes his face out on chip and tar. Auto, off course, has a room filled with wheels pre-tuned for each segment of this disaster Auto pulls out a 3' monkey wrench, walks over to a bent rim section 2' wide with proportional spokes and... graphics arrows move directionally as Auto torques, with handle direction graphics... followed by a cartoon of same (gotta repeat) and I'll leave it to yawl to finish... |
