WHEEL LACING MELBOURNE

Motorbike wheel lacing is the process of assembling the spokes, rim, and hub into a functional wheel. The spokes are arranged in a crisscross pattern, connecting the hub to the rim. This pattern helps distribute weight evenly and ensures strength and stability. Proper spoke tension is crucial for preventing wobbling, warping, or imbalance. The most common lacing patterns are 3-cross and 4-cross, referring to how many times the spokes cross each other. Lacing and truing the wheel requires precision to achieve a smooth, safe ride, making it a vital skill for custom builds or repairs.
