Is your axle shifting in the dropouts when you tighten the nuts?

Chalo said:This would be an excellent opportunity to use good quality 14-15ga double butted spokes and a rim drilled for 14ga spokes, instead of the busted Chinese garbage your wheel came with.
e-beach said:Seems to me to be a whole lot easier to get a spoke wrench from you LBS and center the exiting rim 1/4 turn on the spoke at a time.
adamsavage79 said:I would be surprised if they had spokes that short on hand. I have a bunch of spare spokes myself though.
adamsavage79 said:I guess I'm good then. The ones I have are single gauge spokes. I checked my high end Road Bike, and it's also a single gauge. I'm not sure, I've seen a bike other than that before.
adamsavage79 said:So couldn't I just ask for them to cut 14 Gauge spokes for me, or is more complicated ? Also, it turns out my Giant Bike is Single Butted. I asked my buddy, whom I wish lived much closer to me. I would get him to fix up the wheel.

Straight out of the box, for the wheel. I had some loose spokes originally, least according to the bike shop. That bike shop and another tried to dish it, to get to stay center but couldn't get it perfect.
The wheel itself shouldn’t effect it. Basically the reason it does it because there is uneven pressure left to right. Does the wheel sit in the centre of the frame.
