This is the first wheel truing stand I've owned. In fact, it's the first time I've used a stand to true wheels. I've always trued up wheels on the bike. This method is only satisfactory. Using this stand allowed me to achieve much, much better results. One wheel came out especially good. The stand helps a lot to see where the adjustments need to be made. Mine came with 3 spoke wrenches of varying gauge, a nice surprise. It would be nice if the stand were a little more rigid as there is some side-to-side sway.

You get what you pay for. Bike stand is not sturdy at all. When the tire is rotated the stand wobbles. I had to resort to clamping it to my work bench and it does not help at all because the uprights wobble as well as the whole stand and it is not level on the bottom. Has no explanation of what the additional holes are for in the upright. Very low quality and a pain to use. This will go in the garbage and I will buy brand of better quality. I am sure I will have to pay more, but attempting to true a tire with this thing is impossible.

This is a much better alternative than using your brake pads with the wheel on the bike. The attachment for checking roundness is a nice touch. Very good quality for the price. It would have got 5 starts if the bracket for holding the rim screws provided a symetrical adjustment. Still for the price it works very well.

I used this to build a set of wheels. There are TONS of youtube videos on how to build and true wheels. Mine turned out perfect with the use of this truing stand and now I can do it any time I please!

It's OK for the price. Gets the job done, if you are truing one or two wheels every once in a while. Do not expect a precise piece of machine, but it works !
