Tools
Building and maintaining wheels to a high standard requires the right tools. Whether you're setting up a home workshop or stocking a professional truing stand, we carry the essential equipment used by experienced wheel builders.
- Spoke keys / nipple drivers — sized to match common nipple flats (3.2mm, 3.3mm, 3.45mm); get the right fit to avoid rounding
- Tension meters — for achieving consistent, accurate spoke tension across the wheel; essential for any serious build
- Truing stands — for lateral and radial truing during the build and for ongoing maintenance
- Dishing tools — to verify the rim is centred correctly between the locknuts
- Spoke thread prep — lubricants and thread compounds to reduce nipple friction and improve tension accuracy
All tools we stock are chosen for workshop use — no budget substitutes. If you're looking for a specific tool or need advice on what to buy for your first build setup, feel free to get in touch.
