Show Notes

Wheel balance is an important aspect of cycling that affects the overall performance, comfort, and safety of the ride. When a wheel is out of balance, it causes vibrations, reduces stability, wastes watts, and potentially leads to premature wear of components such as tires and bearings. The truth is, cycling wheels are normally out of balance. However, most people never realize they are. This week on FASTER we discuss what causes wheel imbalance and how to properly balance a wheel so you can become FASTER.
