Description: (Individual chapters available below) An hour and a half long video on spoke lacing? Yep, you lucky bunch! Jokes aside, this is my attempt at making a one-stop-shop for how to lace the most common spoke patterns including radial, 1X, 2X, 3X and 4X. I explain the tools needed, the pros and cons for each pattern and then a detailed guide on how to lace them. I never set out to make a video this long but by the time I had included all the information I felt was necessary it ended up being the longest video I've ever made for my channel. This isn't really a video to watch to get hyped up before a ride but instead a tool to whoever may find it useful when building a wheel. Please check out the chapters if there's a specific point you'd like to study. 0:00 - 1:52 Intro 1:52 - 3:19 wheel components 3:19 - 5:10 tools used 5:10 - 6:15 what this video will cover 6:16 - 7:00 asymmetric rim check 7:00 - 7:18 left and right orientation 7:18 - 10:12 radial lacing pros and cons 10:12 - 12:11 1X pros and cons 12:11 - 14:39 2X pros and cons 14:39 - 17:47 3X pros and cons 17:47 - 20:45 4X pros and cons 20:45 - 22:12 radial lacing technique 22:12 - 25:22 spoke head and shoulder placement tips 25:22 - 31:30 radial lacing technique continued 31:30 - 45:48 1X lacing technique 45:48 - 1:01:27 2X lacing technique 1:01:27 - 1:20:38 3X lacing technique 1:20:38 - 1:30:02 4X lacing technique 1:30:02 - 1:31:31 outro HUGE thanks to Light Bicycle for the Recon rims, I've been happily running their carbon hoops on my trials and MTBs for the last few years with zero issues. lightbicycle.com Also a HUGE thanks to Industry Nine for supplying me with their amazing Hydra hubs, I'll be running a set of these on both my Trials and MTB once they're all built. industrynine.com Special mention and thanks to Tartybikes for their support and supply of spokes. tartybikes.co.uk I'd love to hear if any of my tips helped you on your wheel building journey, maybe some of my tips allowed you to build your first wheel or maybe it's been a while and you just needed a reminder but either way let me know down in the comments. Lastly, just remember that these tips are how I lace MY wheels, I'm sure people will have their own methods but I know my advice works as I've put them to use successfully thousands of times before and was taught to me by professional builders. If you build a slightly different way then that's totally fine just be respectful if you have different opinions. Let me know what you think and thanks for watching.
