• I have some stupid questions. Bought a wheelset. Installed tubes and tyres. Put it in the frame that is being build up but the rear wheel isn't as true as I'd like it to be. Do I need to wait to ride it for some km's to see if the wheel 'sets' itself? Ofcourse I've already thrown away the box in which they came so return will be a hassle. Will make a video tonight to see if I'm overreacting or not. Would like some opinions. Is there a tolerance to how wheels can arrive out of the box?

  • Normal tolerance for factory built wheels is ±1mm. Check the spoke tension, by squeezing pairs. If it's wildly out then take them to a shop to get trued.
