  • CHECKLIST Trust in Sapim Spokes
    CHECKLIST Trust in Sapim spokes Dear Friend, As you know, bicycle and wheel technology has developed considerably over the last few years: the increasing use of materials such as carbon-fibre, different aluminium alloys, titanium and stainless steel, means you continually need to update your wheelbuilding skills. Lighter wheels and light- weight bikes create new demands. Twenty-one speed gearing and disc brakes has affected wheel geometry and added to material fatigue. Sapim’s Research and Development Department is able to offer you advice on wheelbuilding which conforms with Product Liability and Customer Safety Regulations. This document is prepared with the assistance of professional mechanics working in MTB and Road racing. Yours in sport, Sapim’s advice on building and maintaining good wheels FACTS COMMENTS Correct spoke length After the wheel is centred, the spoke will be visible at the top of the nipple. Choice of the spoke type Suited to both wheel construction and bicycle type. It is not correct to think that a thicker spoke makes a stronger wheel. A stronger wheel is obtained by using a thinner (more flexible) spoke, • for hubs with large holes, use Sapim Leader Ø 2.30 mm spokes • when the spokes in the wheel show a mis-alignment to the nipple, use Sapim Strong Ø 2.30 mm spokes, butted to 2.00 mm; very often they improve the spoke-nipple alignment. For race wheels, Sapim CX-Ray and Sapim RACE are preferable; they are more resistant to vibrations. For MTB and CYCLO CROSS we advise the use of Sapim CX-Ray, Sapim RACE or Sapim LASER (do not use Sapim Laser in wheels with disc brakes).

The proj- World of Wheels Hect got the code name CF, and the inventors tentatively offered their labour-saver to various bicycle factories in the Netherlands en nearby Europe. The all-mechanical lacing machine had an automat- ic nipple feed and reduced the operators’ work to bringing each spoke in front to the right spoke hole. The machine proved itself as reliable and very cost- effective, and during the first couple of years a total of no less than 900 have been sold. The machine was born when the Dutch importer of English bicycles got complete knocked-down bicycles instead of fully-assembled. They had to build their own wheels. Outsourcing in those days meant jails and monasteries and it involved a lot of logistics and time management problems. To overcome these, founding father Van Doornik and his dedicated technical engineer sat together and developed the lacing machine, on purpose. When the machine appeared to be a technical step forward, and, raditional bicycle markets are changing. Europe without any need for time-consuming adjustment to at least as important, a commercial success, the project got 10 new member states, most of them with a wheel diameter, spoke pattern or spoke number. was turned into what is now Holland Mechanics, the Tbicycle industry.

Exclusive wheels, in small numbers, for the connoisseur. These wheels have to be trued to exact tolerances with special spoke wrenches (there is no room for the traditional key ring or the robot’s arm). The old race mechanic could do the job, but it will get more and more difficult to find the skill and the experience to true a perfect high-end wheel to exacting tolerances. That’s why Holland Mechanics have built a semi-auto- matic hand truer, SMT (SMart Truer). On the SMT, special wheels from 12” to 30” with any number of spokes up to 48 can be trued to a 0.05 mm tolerance. The trick is, that the jig’s sensors and computer offer the trueing directives for each nipple and for each true- ing round.
