Please be careful to not over-tighten the spokes as this will cause your rim to lose its trueness. We recommend having a local bike shop do it for you if you&apos;re not familiar with the process.<p style="box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: -apple-system, &quot;system-ui&quot;, &quot;Segoe UI&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">&#xA0;<p style="box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: -apple-system, &quot;system-ui&quot;, &quot;Segoe UI&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">To tighten the spokes yourself, you&apos;ll need a spoke wrench like the one linked <a href="https://www.parktool.com/en-us/product/spoke-wrench-sw-3" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="box-sizing: border-box; background-color: transparent; color: rgb(31, 115, 183); text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">here</a>.&#xA0;<p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 0px; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: -apple-system, &quot;system-ui&quot;, &quot;Segoe UI&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">I&apos;ve also linked a video tutorial on tightening spokes here.<p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 0px; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: -apple-system, &quot;system-ui&quot;, &quot;Segoe UI&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;"> <p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 0px; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: -apple-system, &quot;system-ui&quot;, &quot;Segoe UI&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;"><iframe width="100%" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/-1mZM6cy9d4?&amp;wmode=opaque&amp;rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
