Who built it? If it was under tension and then used on a working cargo bike itll rattle itself loose quite quickly. Would back all the nipples all the way out, then start again otherwise you'll be chasing random low spots forver.
BrickMan-
Omnium built it, so I was hoping for a little more than 2 days... Especially on the rear.
I've never even had a mountain bike wheel lose all tension in all spokes, after a couple of days. I don't see why the rear wheel of a cargo bike being used only on the road should be under any more stress than a mountain bike.
The nipples were barely hanging on by a thread when I stopped.
As soon as my new rims arrive the wheels are getting rebuilt anyway.

Must be the time of year... I had every single spoke in my rear wheel come completely loose after just 2 days on it. I had to buy a spoke key and re-tension the entire wheel at the side of the road and try and get it as straight as possible just so I could carry on working. Not impressed with the wheelbuild. I've never had that happen in 40 years of cycling. I'm amazed the wheel didn't collapse.
