Title: Respoking a wheel Post by: Clive on January 12, 2017, 07:46:25 PM Anyone on here able to, or know where I can get a rear motorcycle wheel respoked and obviously 'trued' afterwards?
Have got the wheel, and spokes are on the way. Ideally reasonably local to Andover. Thanks as always, in advance Title: Re: Respoking a wheel Post by: Manky Monkey on January 12, 2017, 07:55:27 PM Without wishing to volunteer him for a job he may not want, Mr Olds, here in Basingstoke, would be the very chap for that.
If not, my brother has a race car & general fabrication business in Marlborough. He can do it. Title: Re: Respoking a wheel Post by: Clive on January 12, 2017, 08:13:13 PM Thanks Andy

Title: Re: Respoking a wheel Post by: toad on January 14, 2017, 08:19:50 AM I have a wheel building jig here you can borrow if you want to have a go yourself?? It's not a hard job I taught myself using you tube videos. If you get really stuck I'll do it but it's not a job I enjoy ;)
