How to True a Bike Wheel Fast – Fix Wobbles in Under a Minute!
🚴‍♂️ Amazon link to spoke wrench 👉 amzn.to/4imWb4z
In this quick and easy tutorial, I’ll show you how to straighten a bike wheel in less than a minute using simple tools like a spoke wrench or even an adjustable wrench (if you’re careful!). Whether your wheel has a slight wobble or you're looking to fix it on the go, this guide covers everything you need to know to true a bike wheel without removing it from the bike.
I’ll demonstrate step-by-step how to flip your bike upside down, use the brake pads as a guide, and adjust the spokes to bring your wheel back into alignment. Using a cross-sectional view, I’ll explain how the spokes push and pull the rim to create balance and how tightening or loosening spoke nipples shortens or lengthens the spokes to correct wobble.
This video features:
Close-up footage of a spoke and nipple adjustment.
Clear explanations of spoke tension and wheel alignment.
Practical tips for using everyday tools to get the job done fast.
By the end of this video, you’ll have the confidence to true your bike wheel on the spot, whether you’re on the trail, at home, or in the middle of your commute. Perfect for mountain bikes, road bikes, and hybrids!

    I’m sure it’s a competent grease. What you don’t say is why this $28 pound can of grease is any better than an $8 pound can of typical marine grease. Bicycles operate in wet environments, so a marine grease is appropriate. As for the rest of a bicycle’s greasing needs, they are low temperature, low speed, and low pressure applications, all well satisfied by any marine NLGI 2 grease. Nothing on a bicycle approaches the abuse bearings on small boat trailer wheels have to endure.

    "Upgrade" from what? A 2x9? For what kind of riding? I'm glad you like it, but you haven't fully covered the the "why". I've never been one to ride on really technical trails or jumps, so I have never had a use for 1x. In fact, I've moved back to a 3x to have enough range and granularity between gears for a casual "all-road" style bike.

    use an adjustable stem riser . this allows the existing handle bars to come UP and back towards the rider . because it's adjustable the position can be altered at any time to suit the riders needs. this can be done in ,even when on a ride .

    You better remove the chain from the bike and apply rust converter to the chain to make it clean inside out .

      You're exactly right, for a good scrubbing. 🚴👍

    I have the exact same Bafang setup , but for some reason, the headlight goes off when the tail light come on. Both lights work fine independently, but will not come on at the same time. Any ideas?

      That is interesting. I'm not sure how to fix it though. 👍👍🚲

      I'm just setting it up again for the winter. It's held up really well. 👍🚴‍♂️

    That was the answer, but what was the question? Not much doubt that you can mount a tubeless capable tyre with a (compatible, unpunctured) tube on pretty much any rim. The question I was interested in was <<Can You Put a Tubeless Tire on a Standard Bike Rim, tubeless?>>. A much more complex question. The answer for me was << 'yes' but you may not be able to inflate it>>

    Is it safe to turn on the lock of front shock in a long period of time ? Will it break the shock ?

    I think the video says the answer is yes, no additional video required.

      Hey man, at least the video is less than 3 minutes long and dives straight into answering the titular question. Most videos like this are like 25mins these days with a ton of backstory and filler.

      Longer videos have more ads. I'm just trying to answer the question fast and provide a tip or two.🚴🚴🚴
