hi, can anyone help, ive had a 36 spoke wheel rebuilt new rim on old hub, the problem is that when i got it back i noticed that the spokes on one side of the wheel were slightly curved as though the neck of the spoke was too short and the spoke had to be bowed to get it to reach the rim! the tension on the spokes was ok the wheel man said it was ok, but is it? i am not convinced. can anybody help i dont want to find out the hard way.
