Help Shog

Anyone have a closeup photo or can make one of WRR spoked wheel that was balanced using SPOKE weights(not the stick-ons). Question as to mounting and clamping them ON or above the nipple?

I have always used the stick on rim weights, never personally used spoke weights but I would think they would go above the nipple, not on them.

Do you have crimp-on or ones with set screws?

They clamp around the nipple body... you push them down onto the spoke to release the tension and take them back off...

grnd0,

K&L supply has lead and non-lead ones you can get on amazon.com or I found these (more expensive) reusable brass or nickle ones http://www.advrider.com/forums/showpost.php?p=10474959&postcount=10

No problem. Only reason I know is because the rim isn't wide enough for the sticky weights on my KDX :)
