I have a question that I hope to have some light shed on. I have built several wheels all of which have been for heavy or middle weight bikes, and have had no problems. Tonite I relaced a lightweight wheel, and have run into a problem. It seems that no matter how I work this, I always end up with only one side of the hub offset in the wheel. Spin the wheel, and it runs round and one side of the axle stays put. However the other side moves around. Hold the axle firm, and the wheel has this weird wobble that I can't seem to get rid of without really torquing the spokes harder than I like. Any suggestions, please?
Thanks in advance!
