For building and truing wheels (natch)
I’m looking at the Jobsworth pro and the Park TS8 currently.
Would like to spend less if possible.
Any recommendations?
Not going home-made as I don’t really have the time.

I got a lightly used Park TS-2.2 for less than 1/2 of what they sell for at discount online bike shops which are well below RRP to begin with. I wasn’t really in the market for one, but that was too good to pass up. 😳

The Jobsworth looks like a Park knockoff, but I’ve never seen one in person so can’t comment on whether they are good or not. And some folks swear by their homemade ones.

ts2.2 …. eBay for about 1/2 rrp

Jobsworth. A very good facsimile of the Park, with a couple of very neat features.

I like the white coloured bar which the gauges are attached too – makes sighting your wobbles much easier than the reflective park.
