Can you give a pointer to SB's instructions for tuning a new generic
wheel? (aka wheelinabox).  I looked on his site and only saw very
lengthy and detailed wheelbuilding instructions.  I have no idea which
****tion to concentrate on.  I'm curious because I recently purchased
that type of wheel and am interested in giving it a once-over before
riding.  I need "idiot's guide" type stuff that assumes no knowledge
(although I understand hubs, rims, spokes, spoke wrenches, etc - I've
never actually tuned a wheel)

Thanks.
