Truing Zonda wheels

[Dave Davenport]

One of the front spokes went completly loose a while ago. Since then I can get the wheel pretty true and the spoke tension feels ok but it go's out of true within a hundred miles or so. Is there a technique to getting the tension right for bladed / radial spoked, wheels? I manage ok with standard crossed spoked ones but is this a job for a pro?

My Zondas came with a special bracing tool and a spoke spanner, the rim bridge isn't drilled (no rim tape needed) so I'm guessing any adjustment needs to be made from the hub end, I have looked at my instruction sheet, but I think I'll be going to my LBS if I need this job doing, just a bit too teccie for me.

You adjust them from the spoke nipples as per a 'normal' wheel. I think the problem is I'm not getting enough tension on them, I'll take them to a pro and get them done properly.
