- Epic dirt bike wheel build beginners guide. How to build dirt bike wheels for home. New wheels for the RM125 dirt bike step by step wheel build with new Excel rims, new stainless steel spokes and new spoke nipples on a standard hub with amazing results.
This is the most straight forward intro to wheel building I've seen and the truing covers stuff people just don't do. I'll use this standard to have a go myself sometime. Thanks for the time effort and keeping it simple for us mere mortals 👍🏼
Cracking job there mate! and thank you. Therapeutical!
Wow, you made that look easy. I've never laced a wheel before but I'm going to have to do it soon with a wheel that needs repainting. I'll definitely use this video as a reference. Those wheels are going to look great on the RM.
Thanks Donnie it's not that hard just takes time and small adjustments many times will win the race.
Never watched that done thx for sharing 👍
Thanks mate..
Good stuff, very educational, I've never had a go at doing that myself. Cheers for sharing 👍
Thanks Danny appreciate the feedback how you going now?
@@BrokenSprocket slowly feeling better as the days go by, looking forwards to getting back on a bike
Thanks for this , fantastic video mate. 👍🏴
Great video. Thank you
Thanks mate appreciate the feedback 👍
Great, tanks for a realy good video for our beginner🙂
Greetings from Sweden 🙂
Sir, you’re a true master!
Thanks! I will be lacing wheels for my TW 200 project. Kind of a daunting task! Hopefully I get it right the first time!
Brilliant.. Just about to build a couple of wheels and now feel I have the full knowledge to do so. Thanks
Good stuff mate 👍
Thanks,I'm about to try lacing a rim for the first time. Your video was quite helpful.
Thank you mate, this is exactly what i was looking for. Cheers 👍👍👍
Choice way to spoke Mon Ami...
Bravo!
man you made that look easy
you got more patience than a doctor
they look great
Thanks mate a doctor 🤣😂🤣
Great video....
Thanks mate
Thank you by far the best vid i have seen on this topic so easy to understand.
Thanks mate appreciate the feedback.
@@BrokenSprocket just finished my front yz125 wheel turned out great
Good stuff mate glad it worked out for you.
Good job!! Looks like you could open up a shop and have a second career lacing up wheels. I don't think I would have the patient to do it on my own.
Thanks mate you know it's not as hard as you think.
Nice work mate I'll be coming back to this vid at some point soon I'm sure. Nice easy instructions to follow 🤙
Thanks mate are your rims a bit bent?
Yeah couple of dings but don't think they can be fixed by me 🤔 Would more likely use it for blinging up some wheels if I needed to pull em apart and re-lace the spokes 👌
That was very informative now I think I'm ready to have a go at it myself.
Good stuff mate thanks for the feedback 😉
How many times have you done that you make it look easy. I used to work in a bicycle shop building wheels in my twenties. And I can tell you from first-hand experience things can go wrong very easy you did a great job and I hope to try this one day thanks for sharing
Thanks mate it's not that hard just takes time. I'd prefer to build the wheel then change the tyre 🤣😂🤣
Thanks steve have to put this one in the vault for a rainey day 😎👍
Thanks mate 👍
Great Content Steve Really well made and self explanatory! Keep it coming
Thanks mate appreciate the feedback 👍
Fantastically done video! I am going to try this soon on my bike and reuse the stock hubs but get them powder coated. Once you put a new set of wheels on your bike and ride a couple times, do you have to retighten the spokes again? If you do have to retighten them, do you have to take the wheels off the bike again and put the rim back on the wheel balancing stand? Thanks for the very informative video. You make doing this look easy and with the help of your video I’m going to go for it myself. Also how have you likes the excel rims? Have they held up well? Also what spoke brand would you recommend?
thanks
I had a go at doing this. I found the actual lacing to be quite simple, and I could get the side to side adjustment to within a mm, however, when it came to the up and down rotation it was like an egg, well not that bad, but bad enough to have cut my losses and take it to a bike shop. If it wasn't for your video, I wouldn't have even tried, so thanks heaps, I will have another go later.
At least you had a go next time you will win.
How much did the shop charge to do it?
Well that was a VERY WELL done video that i will be saving to my bookmarks for use as i will need to do my rear wheel soon 🤔🤔👍
keep well mate and looking foward to your next riding video 😉🍺
Thanks Jeff appreciate the feedback 👍
@@BrokenSprocket your welcome mate😁👍
Cheers !
Did you use the moose spokes that are for rm 125 or excel spokes thanks alot.
Im a little confused, im new to this but my excels on my 2022 450f are way out right now. So do we torque it down to torque spec then check for side to side and the hop? Then tightenin would put us over torque spec which in my case is 1.8 which seems awfully low.
Did you coat any of the raw aluminum?
Good color choice! Have you been watching the Dakar? Sadly one rider has passed away after a crash. Otherwise good race so far..go honda👍
Thanks mate yeah it's sad for all involved but that's motorsports for you. Go Toby Price 💪
Wait, how did you address the area near the weld?
Great video mate, I've been thinking of getting gold rims and putting them together. You make it look easy, I don't think I could do it though. Nice job!
Thanks mate it's not that hard just takes time.
Love the videos man, too bad is snowy here in canada or I'd be uploading too haha
Thanks mate get uploading no excuses 😉
@@BrokenSprocket haha, I'll try
Did you use excel spokes or the stock spokes? I’m building this exact set for my 07 RM250. I have the same wheels and hubs as you and I also have new sets of stock spokes but I’ve read you have to use excel spokes with their wheels? It looks like you used stock spokes tho?
Excel spokes
Thanks for a very informative video. Where did you buy your rims from thanks
Flash bit if gear ya got there bud they look sweet 👌👌👌
Thanks mate..
Do you where I can get complete rims for a 1990 RM125
No
Where did u buy the excel rims from because I can’t seem to find any for sale anywhere
I got them from f1moto
This is something I need to buy some cheap junk wheels and practice..don’t trust myself to build my own wheels yet I ride too hard haha
Yeah I know what you mean new wheels don't wont scratchers
What a tedious & precise job... (for something that's just gonna get beat on!) Great results tho!
Haha it's not as bad as you think I'd much prefer to build the wheels then put the tyres on lol...
I live in colo vale We should d ride when the the Fires are offer
Sounds like a plan did it burn in Colo Vale?
What year rm
It's a 2003.
@@BrokenSprocket ah ok I have a 97 rm 125
Nice are you restoring it?
