Re: ***Not-So BRIGHTLINER*** Update #5.1 - Got a Handle(bar)!Tiny update.....Just finished truing the front wheel, now both are trued, but the back needs attention.Which begs a question....the calculator says I need 260mm spokes, so I pull out the 260's and lace'm up! Get it trued and about 12 of the 36 spokes protrude past the nipple on the tube side. My LBS guy told me I had one side laced for an A rim, but it was a B rim, so I relaced it properly and still have the same problem.Also, short of buying MORE spokes, OR trimming and rethreading (my guy has a threader), can I CAREFULLY file or grind the tip of the protruding spokes flush with the nipple?
