Because I’m in the middle of building my own birthday present (NOS CAAD8 frame, with take-off components from a 2015 Specialized Roubaix). I decided to check the Axis 1.0 wheels. 28 spoke, 2cross and radial lace (crazy I never noticed). After a quick and dirty lateral true, the (haven’t been used since the 90’s) Wheelsmith reading is 70 non-drive, and 90 drive. There were two out of wack non-drive reading 50, and two 100 reading on the other side. The wheels had a couple hundred miles before taken off the Roubaix.
Should I have measured before trueing…yeah.
Am I concerned about the tension…not really
Will I geek over this…only because it’s fun and makes my family avoid me if I talk about it.
Specialized Axis 1 wheel.
Drive side reads 90.
Non-drive reads 70.
Radial spokes on the Non-drive side.
