before we start bringing the spokes into the final tensioning and trueing stage it's important to stress relieve the wheel first. This step helps seat the spoke heads and nipples. I relieve the tension by grabbing four adjacent spokes, two in each hand and squeezing about as hard as i physically can. Two complete revolutions should be good. After you do this you'll notice that the spoke tension is dramatically lower than before this step. Thats good !
