Hello Ken,

I must believe your exactly right with the belief that it is an art when properly adjusting cones, or at least experience from a careful analysis of the dynamics of the parts in unison. I have always adjusted cones to account for some compression of the skewer. I set the adjust so that a wiggle of the rim is at the point were beaing movement can no longer be detected. Its a suttle thing to achieve.

By the way, I used spell check and clicked change-all to incorrectly spell torque as torch. NO, I am not using my propane torch to tighten hub axle assemblies, or am I smoking hubs in my pipe ;-).

Thanks for your answers Carl Kamenzind West Seattle WA USA
