The magnet-on-a-string method actually worked? I always assumed those vents were too deep for that trick.

Watch me fumble with a spoke wrench for twenty minutes, getting grease stains everywhere and guessing the tension by pinging spokes like a demented harpist. Then the digital gauge beeps and tells me I'm still three units off. Sure, it's technically perfect, but it feels like cheating on a test you studied all night for. The victory is clean and hollow, not the messy win you earn by feel.
