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
Good quick service with good quality product.
Great kit,
Good selection of sizes.
Good quality
Nice made, strong and good in the hand. Perfect JIS screwdriver set.
Good compact unit ideal under seat
Useful In-line fuses for adding a bit of safety as my bike only has 1 fuse for everything, good price.
Have a similar set from Stanley but this has a slightly bigger section of tools. This means I'll be picking this one up more than the other.
Great value for money, wouldn't buy this from laser direct as far too expensive.
I really like this set,brilliant piece of kit,small enough to carry on bike.Yet another great bikers tool from a trusted source.
It worked as it was supposed to, Happy with it
A really handy and compact toolkit that fits nicely in the tailpiece of my bike for those ‘just in case’ moments. Ralph at Bikers Toolbox is an absolute star, and I can think of no compelling reason to buy my stuff from anywhere else.
