Hab den Montageständer extra für mein 29-Zoll-Rad bestellt. Lieferung etc war alles gut aber für den Zweck ist das gute Teil leider kaum geeignet. Das Zentrieren war ein einziger Krampf und hat am Ende ewig gedauert.

I just finished building my first set of 29er wheels (Stans Arch) using this stand and am glad I took a chance on this item. I was not expecting much based on some of the reviews but I found this stand to be a perfect solution as I did not want to invest a lot of money on a professional truing stand.It has some flaws but I give it 5 stars because it is easy to use and I got great results without spending a lot.The reviewers that mention the item is missassembled most likely unfolded the item the wrong way. It can expand/unfold two ways, with the narrower legs towards you or away from you. If you unfold it the wrong way the truing arms will not be positioned correctly.This stand made tensioning and truing my wheels very easy. One of the truing arm feelers is looser than the other but I only use one feeler and flip the wheel over when working on a wheel. Use an elastic band wrapped around a feeler if you want to make it tighter.I do not recommend using this stand to check dish. Use a dishing tool or the method I describe below.The truing arms are not perfectly centered so I did not use the stand to check dish. I checked the wheel dish on a table using a couple of cups (same height) and a stack of coins. It is possible to center the truing arms with a little bending if desired.The plastic arms that the wheel sits in have a little flex. This can cause the wheel to shift a little left or right when the wheel is tightened onto the stand. This will make measuring dish inaccurate.

This has everything needed to build/true a wheel properly, and the price is hard to beat! I saw a few comments complaining about sturdiness, but I did not encounter this issue.

This item is not for use if your not using it for a mobile device or way to true your wheels in a already stable environment. It moves around and is not good unless you can make it stable and it won't keep moving. I am not happy with the way it doesn't have a set position to keep your truing stable it moves around to much for this to be precise as it should be. If you using it to take over to another place to straighten a rim it is at best okay but by no means is it precise like a wheel ytikng device should be. I do not recommend this product to anyone who's trying to do this all the time it isn't that precise so if your just using it to get close maybe but if you want the rims precise not so much. I do not recommend for any bike builder to use this product. Sorry to hokey. Dale
