Evening all,

Just a quick question.

How far out of true would you have your rear wheel before you had it re-trued?

Mine is now out by maybe 2mm.

Too many bloody holes in the road at the moment.

Cheer's Nick.

    Id get a 2mm wobble trued because it would annoy me but it will also wear your rim uneavenly. Or get a spoke key and watch clips on you tube and learn to do it yourself

    Nothing to do with holes. Ask your shop to retension them before truing

    Any wheel can go out of true at any time. Has nothing to do with hitting holes, quality or brand, it can just happen. I would deffo leave it to a LBS if you never trued a wheel before cos you can well and truly screw it up more if you are not careful.
