Hey, whilst putting a new tyre on my rear rim today I discovered that I have two very loose spokes, they are on opposite sides of the rim to each other. Does anyone have any idea what I can do to fix them, cheers for any help. Don't particulary want the wheel destructing on me on Sunday.
Loose spoke help!
Tighten them.....
If you're stuck, I'll do it for you. I'll be there Sunday.

I presume by tightening them you mean turn the nipples clockwise.
Stop messing with your nipples, and tighten your spokes... freak
yes, it is clockwise, from the rimstrip side, counter from the spokeside. don't get carried away, you will buckle your wheel.
I will be there early on Sunday....

What's wrong with playing with your nipples?? Spokes just seem to be spinning freely with seeming to be getting any tighter. Might just leave it to someone who has a clue what they're doing....
Is this really a thread about how to tighten spokes? Surely not. Or some kind of code, what are you lads up to?
I would offer to help but it looks like that job has been spoken for....
B'dum tish...
Gary you are a funny man..
