That was the most well produced, simple learning session on wheel assembly. Got my vote.
I remember when you made this video. I didn't watch because "I'm never gonna do that". Fast forward a year and a half, and I'm glad you made it. I've watched a few different videos on the process, and your explanation is great!
Thanks Tim! I’m glad it was helpful.
What a Great Video! I don’t think most people understand how much effort and how long it takes to make a video like this, great job!
Thanks man! Yeah, it’s a ton of work, I hope it’s helpful for some folks.
How tight is tight? Obviously not a foot lb specifically. Would you say tighten in the specific order 1 skip 2 till they are very snug?
Very snug is a good description I think. They do make a torque wrench specifically for tightening spokes. I’ve never bought one because they aren’t accurate when spokes get a little corrosion, etc. I think feel and the sound is better for routine maintenance.
@@DirtBikingwithDonnie Thank you for that prompt response! Cheers
Good video - but one thing was missing - most manufacturers call for an offset - I may have missed your reference to it. On the rear it is typically specified from sprocket side and on the front from brake side. Great advice and technique though. I am doing both wheels on my bike, but not satified with the rear trueing at this time . . . will back it all out an re do . . .
The offset is taken into account by centering the rim between the spoke holes with this method. The offset referenced by the manufacturer references the difference in the hub width outside of the spokes on each side. The offset is correct on this rim by centering between the spoke holes, it is not equal distance from each side. Not sure if that makes sense, it’s kind of hard to explain in text. Thanks for watching!
Nice and simple and to the point! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Just laced up a wheel very helpful thanks.
Thanks for watching and commenting!
Very nice.
I've had a heck of a time finding a back up rear wheel for my FX. Good find. I'm about to just buy a Tusk wheel.
Thanks for watching!
Treat tutorial. I would add to check where the valve stem comes out so it is easy to access when you are done.
Thanks Mark!
Ill be doing this for the first time in a couple days
was it difficult?
How did it go?
Good vid. You're a man of many talents.
Thanks!
Best video on this! Im looking to do the same thing
You're doing really good videos, I hope your channel grows. Not that this matters any, more of an FYI thing, dubya uses the Chicago CMD extreme pressure grease which was originally developed for lathe dead centers. The copper based 3M anti seize is a good product but kinda messy. Your pick for anti seize is a good choice.
Thanks for watching! That’s good to know about the CMD grease.
Great video very informative. I appreciate you.
Good stuff Donnie.
Thanks!
I have new Tusk Impact wheels and spoke kits for my YZ.
Laced up the rear and there was never any play, at all, whatsoever. Is that normal?
What is the rim size and spokes size?
This is a stock Yamaha wheel that I disassembled for cerakote and powdercoat. It's a 18" x 2.15 rim. The spokes are the stock Yamaha spokes.
Did you go to the race at wind wood farms today?
Yes, working on videos now.
@@DirtBikingwithDonnie awesome can’t wait to see it 👍🏻👍🏻
