hi, if I read it correctly, you wanna change one spoke, wind the one spoke up to tension and true it and then repeat for the other spokes? better you change all spokes at once and if you had alu nipples before, change them to brass too. then you start retensioning the whole wheel and then true it.

If you're rebuilding the wheel completely, slowly untension the spokes, rebuild the wheel, and then bring the spokes up to tension. If you're just replacing the broken spoke, bung the new spoke it, tension it, and then check the tension of all the spokes to make sure they haven't been knocked out of whack when the spoke broke.

Hi all.
I need to rebuild my rear carbon wheel after a second spoke failure in a year. Is it a bad idea to replace one spoke at a time making trueing easier or take the tension of each spoke gradually and replace all the spokes and rebuild. Thanks
