Ralph reviewed this product as "Tool of the Month" in Classic Motorcycle Mechanics magazine (March 2024) and was blown away by it. We have been waiting impatiently since we started Biker's Toolbox for someone to manufacture a decent wheel building frame that actually works. This jig works a treat. Its primary use is as a wheel builder and as far as we are aware it is the ONLY competent tool on the market for this job. It has the second use as a wheel balancer. As a balancer it's great, but is limited in size. During testing it proved not to be wide enough to take a rear wheel from a modern Z900RS and hasn't enough depth to balance a 21" tyre off a trail bike. This unit has the extra advantage of folding up so that it doesn't take up much space
This dual purpose stand is designed to support a motorcycle wheel through the wheel bearings, allowing it to be freely rotated so that it can be checked for both balance and rim alignment. The stand features an adjustable pointer which can be set so that radial and lateral runout can be checked and adjusted, with gravity being used to find the heavy spot on the wheel and tyre combination. The stand is foldable making it ideal for mobile use and easy to store when not in use.
- Designed for manual wheel balancing & checking rim alignment of all types of motorcycle wheel.
- Particularly useful when fitting new spokes or rebuilding a spoked wheel to ensure the wheel is true in all directions.
- Suitable for road & off-road motorcycle wheels.
-Will fit rims up to 5" (125mm) wide, maximum rim diameter 23" (585mm).
- Regular price
- £150.00
- Sale price
- £99.25

Let customers speak for us
Nice compact piece of kit that doesn’t clutter up the tool box too much. Really easy to use and ensures chain is running true .I should’ve bought one years ago!!
Excellent tool for precise measurements and a good price.
Firstly the product represents good value and is perfect for my needs. Ordering was easy, communication was brilliant and delivery was trouble free. Thanks for the sticker and the Haribo nice touch
Really pleased with this tool. Well made and robust and first class quality.
A really decent measuring instrument. A good quality "feel' to it. Also a nice box to keep it in, stop it rattling around in your toolbox. Not just a cheap thin plastic wallet. I will be keeping and using this for a long time.
Strangely though, it has NO vernier scale, and so is not really a VERNIER caliper. Strange but true!
Very happy with the vernier calipers, and quick delivery.
Ralph does it again…….i cannot praise Bikers Toolbox highly enough. I buy all my tools from Ralph, simply because he truly deserves our business. Proof again with the Digital Vernier Caliper I recently bought from him. Top quality tools that he is prepared to pass on for a price that is an absolute bargain, he genuinely doesn’t need to offer these prices, but the fact he does is absolutely gold in the motorcycle community. Thanks!!!
Haven’t used them yet but they look good..
Spot on, super quick delivery. Thanks for the complimentary chew 😁 I will come straight back to you if I need more tools, especially for my older bikes
I've bought them to work on Japanese carburettors
