SPOKE REPLACEMENT AND LACING
Before replacing a spoke, please check the above technical specifications
for the correct spoke length and type. Always use original Vision spare parts before proceeding with
the replacement.
1.Remove the spoke and nipple to be replaced
2.Front hub: unscrew the axle end cap (3) using a 5mm Allen wrench and the Threaded Preload
Collar (4) using a 2.5mm Allen wrench; and remove the axle end cap by hand (Fig.1)
3.Remove the Threaded Preload Collar (4) and the front axle (2)
4.Slide the new spoke in the flange hub hole and re-mount the hub internals following the sequence
shown in Fig.1
5.Rear hub - non drive side: unscrew the Pinch Bolt (5) in the Threaded Preload Collar (9) using a
2.5 mm Allen Key (Fig.2) and then unscrew the Threaded Preload Collar (9)
6.Using a 5mm Allen wrench unscrew and remove the rear Axle End Nut (8) together with Threaded
Preload Collar (9)
7. Slide the new spoke in the flange hub hole and re-mount the hub internals following the sequence
shown in Fig.2
8.Rear hub - drive side: replace the spoke in accordance with the original position and install it
with proper positioning to adjacent spokes.
9.Secure the spoke to the rim by tightening the nipple
10.Use a spoke tension measuring device to follow the recommended tension as in the chart below
11. After replacing the spoke, tensioned and centered the wheel, check that the flat spoke (aero) is
oriented in an aerodynamic position.
CAUTION
Maximum spoke tension must not exceed the tension specification (see
chart below). Using tension above max recommended tension will void warranty and cause wheel
failure resulting in serious accidents and injury. If tension above maximum is necessary to true the
wheel, the rim may be damaged and should be replaced.
Always avoid the rotation of the spoke (spoke wind-up) when the nipple is tightened or loosened by
using an anti-rotation spoke tool.
