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.
