Zipp Wheel Tensioning Question

curious to how often do you all get your Zipp spokes tension checked? if the wheels are still true do you bother checking the tension of the spokes before a new season?

If it’s true, I wouldn’t bother.

To check spoke tension, you need a spoke tension meter…which generally aren’t that cheap: http://www.wheelbuilder.com/dt-swiss-tensio-analog-tensiometer.html

You can use the Park Tool tension meter which is much more affordable: http://www.parktool.com/product/spoke-tension-meter-tm-1

Your wheel can still stay true if the spokes lose tension somewhat simultaneously. My rear Zipp 404 started flexing a fair bit but was true, and the spokes needed serious tightening.
