I use motorcycle weights and solder to balance my spoked wheels. The
tape type fall off at speed.

I have just finished balancing and truing 5 brand new wheels for PA. The
truing was more simple (but very time consuming) than I imagined. Using a readout
gauge, and old hub mounted in vise, a spoke wrench and my "ear" ... the wobble
is all but gone.
However, the balancing has been another matter. I used adhesive backed lead
tape (stolen from my golf bag where I have been trying to tune a slicey driver
for two years), but was amazed at the amount of weight I had to add.
These wheels/tires have never been on the ground ... should I wait until I
have a few miles before attempting?
Any tricks to share?
Thanks,
Don B.
