  • I'd be well happy with just 0.5mm out of true.

  • hmm

    I dunno. I'll see. That kind of thing bugs me, when it could be perfectly true.

    I'd have to take it to someone, no way I could true it perfect. I know my weaknesses.

  • Chances are it's one nipple that's loosened about 1/4 turn.
    If you can spin it, stop it (using the brake) at the offending point, then check inside the rim for the offending nipple, you'll probably be able to true it with a flathead screwdriver.
    If it doesn't work, or you bottle it, take it to a mech, but if you sort it, you've saved yourself a trip.

    EDIT: Ignore! Forgot that although it's a fairing disc, there aren't really any methods of determining whether a given nipple/spoke goes to NDS or DS without prior knowledge of the wheel/rim.

    EDIT EDIT: The offending nipple/spoke could be identified by counting around (clockwise from valve hole, viewed from DS) using an image of a HED C2 rim/Ardennes wheel (same rim used on disc IIRC) for reference. Looking at most wheels on their website, the first spoke viewed from this angle goes to NDS.
