Truing Stand
Solid and beautifully made Pro-Lite truing stand.
Swathes better than the Park Tools blue one, which needs alignment and won't stand up on its own.
Precision engineered metal knob dials for everything important, really lovely to use.
Doesn't wobble, holds firm, is generally a delight.
Also compatible with thru-axle wheels which is v. important in this modern day and age.
I bought it from Arup who is a master wheelbuilder and a forum OG - http://www.yogarup.com/wheels/
£350, collection from London NW1 or could bring to somewhere on the Overground for £10 extra. Heavy!
Spoke Tension Meter
Park Tools one, like new in box.
Works great, calibration is bang on.
£45
Wheel Dish Gauge
Minoura, folding version.
Works nicely, not too much to say really!
£8
