Park Tool TS-8 Home Mechanic Truing Stand (Blue)
Bought this truing stand approx. 10 years ago. Truing stand is a must have for any serious biker, and this is the best buy for individual user. The only inconvenience is, that you need to rotate the wheel during truing, and irregularities along the rim (fluctuation in rim width) can not be seen in real time. One complaint about quality: the locking screw (small threaded grub screw) is not so convenient to use. Bigger thread, and/or grab handle would be much more handy. Other than that, very pleased with it, and would purchase it any time again.
