Right - I got the wheels on and cones adjusted last night.

Those rims are a little worse for wear - they're not worn down, but they've been bumped a few times and are no longer perfect circles - theres a bit of lateral wobble)

I take it I should really be re-truing them? Pretty sure there's a sheldon-brown article on it so I'm not scared to do it... just worried it might take a while since I'll probably end up making quite a few attempts as I learn the ropes/spokes!

I mean, I can probably run with them as-is - they're not so out-of-true that they're striking the brake pads - but I take it it's worth the effort to learn how to do it right? (plus, it's a free learning opportunity!)
