TR2/3/3A Dayton Wire Wheels for TR3a

Share this page

Before fitting the new wires, a smear of silicone around the heads of the spokes inside the hub stops grease escaping through centrifugal force and spoiling the spokes.

Also, only the actual splines need greasing, not the chamfers each end. These need to be dry to grip well and stop wheel movement resulting in premature spline wear. All that the chamfers need is a squirt of WD40 to avoid minor rust.
