Jun 25, 2011 at 7:37 comment added zenbike @Moz, yes they can. I wasn't trying to imply they wouldn't bed in, or that a wheel wouldn't be affected, even severely, by it. Only that in the case of a wheel with known damage, that isn't where I would look first.
Jun 24, 2011 at 4:59 comment added James @stevie_boy_up_there yeah, that seems pretty good. I think imma jerry rig the spokes right (I don't have a nipple wrench here) till I get to the Bikerowave to work this out proper with the tensiometer and what. Thanks, guy!
Jun 24, 2011 at 4:14 comment added Мסž @zenbike: spokes can bed in quite a lot, enough to make rim brake adjustment tricky, especially on a second hand wheel. But agreed, not as much as this one has.
Jun 23, 2011 at 14:35 comment added zenbike It is also unlikely to bed in quite so much as to matter. I would definitely look to damage to the rim on a wheel with that history. Occam's Razor...
Jun 23, 2011 at 10:22 comment added Andy Morris Bed in might be more accurate than stretch. The new spoke will settle into the hub and the bend at the head might give a bit.
