Used wheels. What to look for
Hi everyone
I’m going to look at a used set of wheels today. They are DT Swiss carbon wheels. What all should I look out for when buying used? |

1) corrosion at the nipple/spoke interface
2) Are they true 3) brake track wear (if they are rim brake, of course) 4) inspect carefully for any delamination or dents/dings in the carbon 5) inspect each spoke hole for cracking 6) inspect the outer diameter carefully to check for ground impact points 7) manually rotate axles to feel for bearing smoothness 8) push axles side-to-side to inspect for bearing play 9) inspect hubs closely at spoke connection points for cracking
