I'm trying to find some info on spoke tensions.
Usually I end up just going up to around 22-25 on my Park TM-1. Which = 111-155Kgf.
TBH I mainly use it to ensure the tension is equal/even. For once I thought I'd actually try and use the 'correct' tension....and I'm struggling.
Rims: Mavic cxp30s (*not *'33)
Hubs: On-One
Build: 32h x3
Nothing seems to give me a better answer than somewhere around 100-120.
My thoughts were CXP30's are deeper so can handle slightly more tension. But they are not eyeletted, so that goes against them.
Anyone got any thoughts or know a good list sight?
Cheers.
