Question about rear wheel build for 10sp geared:
I understand that spoke tension on drive side will be higher, but what's the lowdown on how much roughly?
When dished my 105 hub on Open pro is about 115 (units once converted from deflection) on the drive side, and about 55 on the non drive side (left). Is this about right?
Obviously, tightening the left will alter the dish, and I can't really tighten the right further to compensate as it's about at the limit for the rim (infact probably slightly over already).
If it makes any difference the drive side are 2.0 1.7 2.0 double butted whilst non drive side are 2.0 1.8 2.0
