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

Let customers speak for us
from 43 reviewsItem was very easy to use and matched the Yamaha components I was trying to rewire
Works a treat
A lot less messy than using electrical tape.
This product is something of have been keeping an eye out for for a while. At the original asking point it was too expensive, in my opinion. At the discounted price I purchase at, a bargain!
These are not an everyday tool, although you could probably use them as such, at least to a degree. When space limited these are brilliant. I think it is a shame that Laser is dropping them from the range, but understand that probably many people, like myself, were put off by the original price.
What's good? The 3/8" drive, range of socket sizes, extension (with angle drive) cover all the normal requirements of repair and maintenance. The wrench feels good quality and the release mechanism really nice. The hole through the centre of the sockets, being able to hold adjustment screws while tightening with a socket, fantastic! Nice to have are the adapters for standard 3/8" and 1/4" drive. I can imagine that while I have this tool in my hand switching to standard 3/8" sockets by slipping in this adapter is a really nice feature to have. The service from Biker's Toolbox and the fact that they carry tools like this, is also big advert in their favour.
What's not good? I imagine that the price was increased from the inclusion of the 1/4" sockets and extensions. These will probably never get used in my set. I have a great collection of 1/4" wrenches and sockets, which I actually use a huge amount on motorcycles, cars a bit less.
Conclusion: The tool set is great, but needs to be a bit less expensive. How often I have wished to have a low profile set of sockets in the past and having to use a spanner instead is numerous. I hope that Laser may consider rationalising what is included in the set to lower the price point and reinstate this tool into the range. It is a great addition to any home mechanics tool set!
Have had a socket set for years but this one looked very different to your standard set. I now use it as my go-to socket set as it is so much easier to use.
Just so much more refined for removing bearings!
Saves damaging other components or the surroundings when extracting bearings.
Laser Quality. Bikers Toolbox Service!
quality sockets at a excellent price. keep up the good work.
As always Ralph and the Bikers Toolbox provide excellent service and outstanding value for money. Unarguably a fantastic product and excellent service at a price you simply cannot afford to miss
Very good quality tool great prices and great service
This socket set was discounted by Biker’s Toolbox and therefore was a great price. It’s well made, looks sturdy and l’m confident it’ll be a useful addition to my tool kit.
First class tools. Delivery first rate
The 31 pc socket set was my first purchase from Bikers Toolbox, it seems excellent quality very good value.
I will certainly be buying more tools from this company, they give excellent service with quality products
Very useful socket set. The feature allowing the bolt to pass through the socket is great.
