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
- £111.17

Let customers speak for us
item easy to use, good quality.
Perfect for tidying up my 1973 Yamaha trail bikes wiring
Used this for bleeding ABS unit BMW K1200s 2005. You can do some basic bleeding by just topping up the 4 reservoirs as you bleed, but you need to get quite a volume of brake fluid going through the ABS systems before all pockets of air are flushed through. The funnel end screwed in ok but didn't seat well and all the fluid leaked out initially. Problem resolved using lots of PTFE tape tightly wound round the rubber ring section that is supposed to act as a seal. This worked very well. I give 5 stars as I would say it is impossible to bleed all the complicated ABS /SERVO unit without this tool and it worked well in the end. Advise not putting too much fluid in initially when testing the seal, as if it leaks all contents will descend onto the ABS unit, then to the floor.
Ordered this for shipping to Australia & was happy with the time it took to arrive (albeit shipping from the UK to AU is expensive). The tool itself is good quality & works well.
Only used the set a couple of times so far but it appears to be good quality and the low profile feature has already been useful. The offer price made it excellent value for money
A good quality, easy to use crimp tool.
It looks a bit flaky but actually works really well, I had no trouble reassembling my 1951 Douglas.
Using for rewiring 1968 Triumph. Good upgrade from original.
Fuel hose was good quality. However I didn’t realise they were package and not cut from a reel. I ordered 2 meters thinking it would be one continuous length but instead got 2 packets with 1 meter in each.
A whole in one brake bleed kit making life easier, used and it works, I know, surprised most don’t, but this kit actually does work and at a great price, recommend shop at the biketoolbox, this is one a many many great tools. Thanks.
Ordered a special tool, was described correctly and dispatch very fast very easy to do with NO issues would highly recommend 👌
Nice piece of kit . Well made . Good price . Always buy from BT
Fantastic... does exactly what it says and I put it on even when I'm not working on the bike just incase I drop anything when near the bike... strong and durable, covers the whole tank, Kawasaki z900rs... highly recommended.... should have got one years ago.
