First picture is correct then, so the spoke should come out from centre in the same direction as the arrow? See, I had thought it would be the other way round, that the spoke should be in line with the arrow. The manual wasn't very clear but maybe I'm just being dense.

So which of these is right, just to clarify? you're saying b, I think @danstuff

Best thing to do is saw the rim in half across the valve hole to see what the spoke bed angle is doing.

But yeah surely the arrow is saying: Spoke this hole on > that side of the hub. At least your wheels are 50% right... 😆

AAMOI is the wheel that went a bit off true the wrongly spoked one?!

Suddenly it makes sense! Yeah, that's the rear! Thankfully rebuilding the front should be less hassle.
