Questions & Answers

Is there any supporting documentation?

I honestly don't recall if any literature was provided. I work as a forklift mechanic and am an ASE Certified mechanic, so I am familiar with proper tension theories and principles. I'm sure they make charts with the correct tensions; all I did was make sure my spokes were all the same tension.

It's convenient to be able to ensure that all spokes have the same tension

5/5

This was purchased so that I could ensure that all of the spokes were of the same tension. I'm not sure if it's the right amount of tension, but that wasn't my goal. I'm not sure or care if someone who knows what they're doing and can interpret all of the data in the charts that came with the device thinks this thing is garbage. The same device can be purchased from a big blue name brand company, and while it is undoubtedly superior for the knowledgeable or professional, it is very effective for my needs.

I wouldn't be able to make one for less

5/5

The tensioner is similar to the others in this style, with a spring actuated by a lever/pointer on a scale. Prices are increasing all over the place. It's most useful for comparing tension from spoke to spoke to get a picture of which spokes are out of the normal or average range of the entire system. As a tension gauge/meter, it serves its purpose well for the price. But keep in mind that this isn't a $1,000 piece of test equipment, so don't hold your breath.

It aids in the discovery of a strewn spoke

5/5

It worked great for me in locating loose spokes and tightening them to within the range of surrounding spokes. Simple to work with.

It really works

5/5

With this tool, I was able to make two wheels, one of which was nearly perfect in terms of trueness.
