final adjustments and tensiometer


while we're slowly bringing the wheel up to tension 1/4 nipple turn at a time you'll now want to start checking the tension to make sure that they're fairly consistant. The DT tensiometer is measuring the spoke deflection. And not only am i looking for consistant tension i also want to bring them up to DT's recommended values. For the DT Champion spoke i'm looking for deflection value of 2.2 or 105 kgf. Precise.
