The spokes should be sandwiched, fiber discs on both inside the wheel against the spokes and a fiber disc on the out side against the spokes. it will keep the spokes happy. if you do it different it may work for a while but you will be sorry as it will eat the spokes in the long run. There is a bad miss print on some instructions and some very bad translations on some what we tell you here is to make your ride a success and not a failure at least I ain't going to lie to ya.

Norman, thanks for this information as well as a lot of other good information you have placed on this site. The bolt torque really helps
