ULTIMATE
TRUING STAND TSR-80R buy it for US$59.99 on aspirevelotech.com
Ultimate Bicycle Support is renowned for their quality,
and this truing stand is no exception. Made by the same
company that manufactures the #1 rated bicycle repair
stand.
This uniquely engineered single sided wheel truing stand
provides more complete access to your wheel while
tensioning, truing, and building than any other wheel
truing stand. This stand has 2 separate gauges that can
be precisely adjusted... one lateral and one radial.
Indexing indicators let you true and dish any wheel with
a standard hub, up to 29 inches. You can true a wheel
with the tire removed or installed.
Another thing that's great about this truing stand is
its heavy cast base that doesn't need to be permanently
mounted to a bench. It also has compartments for holding
spoke wrenches, nipples, spokes, and your other tools. |
