[QUOTE="SRAD97750, post: 157735, member: 425"] The purpose of a pattern is that every 4th spoke is going the same way. You want to tighten them all at the same time, then move on to the next set. Timo is saying an old spoke/nipple will reach 'measured torque' long before it is actually tight enough, because the threads are corroded/worn, giving it a higher 'run-on' torque. [/QUOTE]
