Spoke tenson meter in mod trials wheel?
Hey, has anyone used one of these park tool spoke tension meters in a trials wheel? Does it fit? Evan says the wheel will probably be too small.

Does your bikeshop use the parktool tenciometer on bmx wheels Ben? It barley fits into my bmx wheel, and its somewhat a pain to use. I had Jeff (skate4flip) measure a mod wheel and the parktool tensiometer won't fit. -- Evan Byrne ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Evan Byrne's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/9367 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/58593 |

yeah. we dont use the tensioner when trueing. just when building wheels, we dont build many bmx. i know it can fit, i dont know how well though. I'll ask the mechaic/ wheel builder. (he is an ex-bmx racer) and is fairly well know for his excelent builds. -- GhettoSmurf http://willowglenbicycles.com/index.cfm[/url] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ GhettoSmurf's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/11929 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/58593 |
