- I am by no means a professional, but I have learned a trick or two over the years. So many maintenance items can be done in your garage with a little know-how, and I intend on sharing some of mine with you guys!

I was gonna buy a truing stand but after watching this I think im gonna save the money and do it this way, simple, cheap, and effective
Update : i ended up buying a truing stand and im so happy i did. It's so worth it

Thank you so much for this simple demonstration
Super helpful! I'm working on an electric motor bike build and having issues with the rear wheel. I'll give it a try!
Thanks so much man, and thanks for being genuine.
I was told after truing wheel to torque spoke to spec by starting by valve stem tightening all the way skip two tighten. Then when you get back to starting point go to the next one skip two repeat then go to the third one skip two repeat. So you do 3 Revolutions to tighten all the spokes but doing so in that order keeps the wheel true when tightening down spokes to spec
Yep. That is the way.
Nice video man. Cheap, easy and to the point!
How does this guy not have more subscribers?!
Short & sweet! Thank you Grant.
😅 the blooper edits. Great video man.
Thanks for the video! Finally picked up another 250 2t, and the rear wheels spokes are so loose.... Thank goodness I didn't ride it yet except test ride before purchase.
I also did check while looking over the bike before purchase. And not all of the spokes are loose. Just majority. And the ones I felt and looked at are of course the ones that are tight. Live and learn!
You made it seem so easy. I’m totally blind and will be trying this with a 21 inch dirtbike rim that has all the spokes loose because the rim is a little bent out of whack. Any tips will be appreciated but please wish me luck. A new cheap rim cost about $180 that I’m not trying to spend. I don’t even have a spoke wrench but I think I can get by with an adjustable crescent wrench.
Thank you very much for this amazing solution 😊
Genius. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you for this man!
Absolute genius
Thanks bro I'm new to dirt bikes I was all set to buy a new wheel
Yeah the axle on some blocks and ez-flex WD 40 can tip help as well
Whattaya know, the bike comes with a built-in true stand (forks) so I can save some 💵.
Great vid. Thanks
Great Helpful video
but how do you find the center spot before truing the wheel?
Great video dude, better than buying a stand that takes up room or paying the local shop $70/hr to do it
Glad this video was of use to you! I’ve since sold this bike to a buddy, and he said his local shop was impressed by how true the wheels were. If you take your time, you can get your wheel REALLY close using this method 🤘🏼🤘🏼 ride on brother!
Thanks pal.
After truing the wheel, do the spokes then need to be torqued to spec all the way round?. If they do need to be torqued after truing, is their a chance that they could be pulled out of line again?
good video dude!
Very well explained and very good showing how to etc.. Please share some more tips if you have
Can i do it without removing the tire? Can i do it correctly with tire on the wheel?
Can you do this with the tire on the rim??

How did you torque the spokes down. Did you use a torque wrench?
You can feel it out
I did not use a torque wrench. Like Connar said, you can feel this out. I got them tight, then checked after my first ride. Checking my spokes is part of my pre ride checklist, and should frequently be checked.
What about torque?
Christ the noise is awful.
will it hurt spokes to add locktite?
