RE-NIPPLING WHEEL

  • Wheels sometimes just need some new spoke nipples. When the nipples start to seize to the spokes it makes trueing a wheel very difficult, if not impossible. Usually, once a few have started to seize then the rest will follow. Wheels with aluminium spoke nipples will be especially prone to corrosion and nipples snapping and disintegrating!
  • Full re-nippling including brass spoke nipples. I will use and clean the threads on your existing spokes. If new spokes are required then I will advise a full rebuild
