I am from malaysia...give me
also as a little tip, its good to stick a piece of blue tape on the high spot you're working on so you don't lose track of where it is.
And on the bike, use a zip tie as an indicator, so you don't have to hold a marker.
Gotta say thank for the video. Really helped me and my son get his close. He has a Chinese bike and all the spokes got loose, even one fell out. So we basically had to start from scratch. You helped us with your video
Nice video, as always!! Being one of those cheap bastards (Im still studying, don't really got money), I ve found that a couple of zip ties around each side of the swing arm or each of the fork legs work pretty good for truing the wheel. The plastic that sticks out rubs against the high spots and doesnt touch the rest of the wheel and makes it very easy to pick where to tighten the spokes.
Tremendous tip dude
Good tip,will try!!! 🍻

Man you are killing it with these in-depth tutorials! Once you have a big enough library to choose from, I do not see why people would watch anything else when trying to tackle one of these jobs!
TUSK
great video man, I didn't know how to true a wheel until I watch this👍
Best and most complete video on how to true up wheels. Thanks!
Always been nervous to true wheels but now after watching your vid it makes me want to get my hands on my wheels and true them haha! Great job! TUSK!
Beards looking sweet dude 👍
Good to see you back
TUSK
Could really use this cause I’m probably not buying one 😂 can’t wait for the next video!
Dude, your videos have helped me tremendously when performing my own maintenance. I now feel confident enough to attempt fixes on my own. Love the channel @Cameron Niemela
Hey there!! I followed your guide on building and truing the wheels and now my 2003 XR80R is good to go!! Great tutorial, it worked like a charm... Now only if i could have finished my wheels like yours!!
Nice work! Do I get that cardboard shim from Rocky Mountain? 😆
TUSK... probably a little late. What a great video. you are such a great teacher. I feel that this is a job i am capable of after watching and learning from you.
TUSK! Keep these videos coming. Good to see you back at the grind and rock that beard dude!
thank you for all the advice! it would be nice with a 80 spokes wheel as well. you would be litterally the only one showing how to do it on TH-cam.
shortest 21 minute bathroom break i’ve had
It’s funny that when Cameron likes my comments I feel so special even tho he always likes everyone’s comments cuz he’s s fckin awesome dude and loves his fans! Lookin so much healthier my dude! So happy to see you kickin life’s ass keep up all the good progress!!🤘🤘🤘
Thanks man I truly appreciate that!
TUSK love the vids man, cant wait to see the 250 come together soon!!!!👌 keep it pryme!!
Great video. What was your cost on the torque wrench? Are all spokes reverse threaded?
TUSK
Thoes wheels turned out beautiful! I've used the SOUND of the spokes since I started riding. Thanks for sharing your knowledge of all things pertaining to maintaining our bikes correctly.
That's BUTTERY! 😀
my first time tuning a rim been searching many sources this video very informative don't think i will have any problems
T U S K
Now I might be ready to put an 18in rim on my hub.
TUSK Its awesome seeing your hair grow back. You have taught me so much and have helped me save tons of money working on my own bike. Keep up the good vids!
15:53 sounded like jingle bell's,, And my truing stand is pair forks and coat hanger, lol
I’m trying to make a home paid one can you explain this great invention you have described 😂😂
TUSK
Just did this job on a vintage Honda rebuild. I muddled through it but would have been nice to have this video before I started. I love the videos! Keep them coming!
TUSK been watching you videos for years still here watching em today and that means your doing something right good work mate
TUSK always good to see a video where you give other options on how to get the job done for the people that dont have some of the good tools.
Hey Cam, didn’t need this info till now and I remembered watching you do this before so it was easy to find, cheers buddy 👌🏽👏🏽
Broke my collar bone last Sunday wrecked my 13 rmz250 but I binged all your how too’s so it’s gonna be fresh when I’m back on it !
TUSK! Thanks for the vids and taking your time to do them the way "how to" videos are supposed to be made. I actually feel like I really learn something with every one I watch!! Thanks brother. Its good to see you getting and feeling better! Still sending prayers your way good sir!
Tusk
This will come in handy if I decide to tackle this job on my 1986 Honda cr500. Wheels will be the last on the list for the restoration. Will have the stock hubs powdercoated and then get some stainless spokes, either reanodize the stock wheels or buy new. Great video!
Thanks for putting this video together, fascinating stuff. I had no idea you torqued the spokes after truing them
TUSK
Not just doing this for the give away but I’ve genuinely find your videos useful to me! Thank you for the content and keep it up!
Its very helpful for me. My Motorcycle's Front wheel Spining with left and right. Now, Im trying torque recnch and adjust my wheel. Thanks a lot
Thanks for the videos. My dad used to show me this. Having your perspective bring some new light. Thanks again and well done on the win!
TUSK
I hope I win won of these! I was very clueless on how to do this and was wondering why my bike was hopping. Now I know how to fix it! Love your videos!
Tusk...thanks for the great info. I never tried building a motorcycle wheel, but have never had luck with a mt bike wheel. Time to practice, practice, practice!
TUSK
Had a 2002 xr80 as my first bike watching this brings back alot of memories!
Ron Howard's working on bikes ! Cool !
TUSK, this video motivates me to go out and paint my supermoto rims, now I know how to true the wheels!
Tusk!
Great video! I tried truing my mountain bike wheels about a year ago and had a super hard time! This video would have made things 100% easier
TUSK, got a 95 xr250 and a 1990 xr80 that need new spokes and a fresh set of rubber this is awesome
Excellent video and tutorial as always.
Tusk
Love the build series Cameron! Doesn't even matter the bike, just love your attention to detail!
Very thorough and professional as always Cameron
great tutorial...thank you very much...I just broke 6 spokes on my HD Sportster Nightster...I ordered new spokes and will make good use of this video you shared...thank you again...hope I can get my wheel turning true :) ...
Tusk... Love your videos. Please please please finish this cr. Can't wait to see the direction you go for the plastics.
TUSK!
Thanks Cameron, easy to understand and well explained. I like the way you show it on the video as well. Keep up the great work. Going to have a go myself.
Tusk
Your videos have been very helpful over the years
Sound method always works for me. Cross my fingers. Never had spokes go untrue or brake on me, although I have only done a classic honda cb750 wheel with oem parts. Now I'm doing a supermoto set of wheels for a xl600r with custom Buchanan spokes and warp9 rims
TUSK
I like what you do man. I fix my bike alone since I am watching you. Thanks
Tusk! I like to use zip ties on either the fork tubes or swing arm to gauge the high/low areas.
TUSK
Getting ready to assemble the wheels for my 2001 kx250 frame-off rebuild. I need this!
TUSK
Best truing tutorial i've seen so far!
Tusk!! You’re rocking that beard Cameron! Nice to see you feeling a lot better.
TUSK. Always struggled with trueing wheels till now hopefully, very clean info thanks!
TUSK
Glad to see you happy again at what you best !!

TUSK!!!
Thanks for another great vid broseph - always amazed by the quality of your video production, and of course your polished wrenching skills!
TUSK
Im the process of building a 1973 ts400 brat tracker so the tusk tool would work great for when I get the rims back from powder coat.
Thank you for the opportunity to win this awesome spoke torque wrench your amazing content Cameron
(P.S. if you did start charging for videos videos I would happily pay for them)
Good luck to everyone else!!
TUSK ! im going to be anodizing my rims and cerakoteing my my hubs on my crf450 next week! going to need one of these!

Easily the best video on truing a wheel.
TUSK
Wheel looks amazing!!
TUSK
Love your videos, always come here when I dont know how to do something. Keep up the great work!
TUSK
I would love to have that wrench haha
I bought a wheel on offer up and last minute the guy told me the spokes were loose it would be great to get my wheel trued so I can ride. Thanks ! Love the vids man keep it up
TUSK
Great tutorial! This vid is going to come in handy when I true my wheels next month.
TUSK IT UP. I went out today and bought a sandblast enclosure, cleaning tank and grinder. I would love that tusk wrench. I need to get some of your Scotch-Brite pads. I will order whatever I can from your links to help out thank you for your videos.
Thanks man! Watch out though you might just get addicted to this fixing dirt bikes thing haha
@@CameronNiemela too late for that. My order finally went through I was having trouble with my phone. I'm interested in starting a website so I could sell parts any advice and did you build your on website?
@@DRONE-kr6le Thanks man! I'll get them shipped out today. Yes, I did build my Revive moto website. I went through Shopify for that. Not too hard to do. Id recommend doing ebay for a bit before doing your own site
@@CameronNiemela Thank you, just trying to find something to do on my time off. I remodel bathrooms and all types of floor covering. But there's something about breaking down a bike and rebuilding it while being real detail about it. You should make your own how to videos or even start a patreon channel,you are good at what you do I'll be the first one to sign up.
TUSK
I am building a 2003 yz250f and it’s coming along great hope it gets finished by this summer!
Tusk!!! Always learn so much from your videos. Thanks for all the work you put in.
TUSK
Thanks for all the great info. I appreciate your attention to detail in all your videos and willingness to share all your tips and tricks.
The Tusk spoke torque tool is awesome to use to torque the spokes.
tusk
I have been looking for a reason to restore my rims, and this might just be it.
Great videos!
TUSK
Can't wait for the Cr250 to be finished. Keep at it bro.
TUSK !
This video is absolute GOLD
Great video for people trying to learn this skill. Much appreciated!
TUSK
Funny enough i Just broke one of my spokes on my back wheel so It would be nice to have when I buy a new set.
Edit- forgot to mention your videos are also amazing I find them more informational than even the ones on Rocky Mountain.
Tusk
-- man the beard game is getting strong again!!
Tusk!!!
love all of your content ever since I have found your channel I have been working on my bikes in a whole different outlook and it has made it alot easier on myself love the vids man I cant wait to see the progress on the cr250
TUSK!
I love that moment at 13:00 just thinking "I hope everything goes right and I don't mess up the wheel after some hours adjusting it" 😂😂 nice video and very well explained, for sure is it going to help, and by the way your girlfriend is going to have the best XR in the country 👌
TUSK
This tool can save my old wheels! I admire you!
Tusk
Thanks for the vid cam, I will use this knowledge on my Cr’s and the 1983 KX80 I’m restoring right now.
Tusk learn a lot from all your videos keep up the good work
Tusk, thanks for the vid, i was literally just about to put new wheels on my crf. This helps a lot!
TUSK
Nice job! I tryed to true my bicycle wheels when I was a kid... it was a mess... lol!
TUSK! TUSK! TUSK! TUSK! TUSK! I need one! Just picked up a old Harley 21" wheel. It's out of whack. Thanks for the vid. Going to share your video with my fruends.
Thanks for watching!
TUSK
Congrats Cam on just being the best even when life throws you hell
Tusk
So ready to see what these rims look like on the bike!
man, I wished you lived near me. I'd pay you to true in my wheels! Bought a new motorcycle and the front end feels all over the place, only thing I can think of is that balance and truing is out of spec. Thanks for sharing such a great and information video!
TUSK
great job man! I did one awhile ago and I struggled. Wild love to give another go!
tUSK
Great Video. Didn't even know there was such a thing as a spoke torque wrench til today! I've been doing it by sound all these years. One thing I do different is I use a mag base dial indicator to take that part of the guess work (or eyeballs) out of it. Its amazing with basically the same time and effort how much more true you can get them.
Up and down wobble: Hop; high and low, not out of balance, Side to side wobble (not high and low) . Eventually you can ping each spoke to listen for a very high or low pitch( ping, thunk . . .) and tension more evenly. "Balance" is finding the heavy part of "frictionless" rotations and offsetting with weights, might be with stem and rim lock(s) and then add tire and tube
TUSK
Love a lot of their products! Love watching your videos, always learn something
Great video. One question. Won’t torquing the spokes down to a set torque then throw out any adjustments made previously?
TUSK
Good to see you back on the grind Cam! Keep the videos comin!
So when tightening or loosening the spokes is the direction to tighten counter clockwise and loosen clockwise or is it the same as when you tighten a bolt righty tighty lefty loosey?
Tusk
I’m ready to start my tool collection for working on my bike!
TUSK
Your videos are awesome man! Going to be trueing up my wheels on prep for hard enduro!
