indianatrials Posted October 5, 2010 Report Share Posted October 5, 2010 http://tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?product_id=10317&category_id=20 How do you put the spokes through the non disc side without bending them? Im not talking about just this hub, most hubs are like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie_Trials Posted October 5, 2010 Report Share Posted October 5, 2010 Just bend them, its ok if it gets bent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Rainbird Posted October 5, 2010 Report Share Posted October 5, 2010 Spokes have enough flex to allow a slight bend, but be sure you don't kink them! Softly softly catchy monkey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted October 5, 2010 Report Share Posted October 5, 2010 If you've got the cardboard core of a roll of tape (sorta size you get in a tape dispenser, not the dinky ones!), you can bend them around that to get a nice, gentle arc that's good enough for most hubs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just pure genius. I've always just bent them whilst pushing them through. Will be doing this next time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted October 5, 2010 Report Share Posted October 5, 2010 I used to too, then Adam showed me the light Just hold the threaded section against it with one hand, bend with the other. Works really well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
