I don't send like the 25-year-olds, but my Reserves have been the best wheelset I've ever owned. Zero maintenance. One (of the many) things I suck at with bike maintenance would be truing a wheel. So much so that it's the only thing I don't even attempt to do myself anymore.

I just started getting alright at it within the last year or so (after a few years of learning), usually have on my more experienced mechanics take care of wheels for serious riders just in case. It's so simple but such an artform at the same time haha
I do like carbon wheels for that reason though, not many go out of true very easily.

You could probably just, like, do final tensioning and truing and check dish with a tire installed?

IME the drive side spoke tension is always higher than the non-drive side and you can hear this by hitting/ pinging them with a tool

The hose guide hole on my fox fork is stripped, complete spinner. What’s the fix? Re-tap bigger? Shove a toothpick shaving in the hole and tighten away?
