Spoke question on rear Mavic Aksium

Hi
Just noticed today whilst cleaning my rear wheel, that one of the spokes on the non drive side is at 90 degrees to the others - I.e. is not aero but the tension seems fine by hand
Any ideas if this is just a turn of the spoke nipple or do I need it to go to the LBS? I'm a wheel novice!
They are 6 months old with maybe 600 miles on them
Cheers

Take a pair of pliers and turn it, make sure it doesn't wind up. While you do that, you should hold the nipple with a spoke key.left the forum March 20230

Thanks Ugo
Will give that a try
Would you suggest twisting it clockwise or anti?0 -
