A tenner for a spoke!!!

Anyway, i have spare spokes as i bought extra when i built the wheel in the first place. In the past I have used borrowed or improvised jigs, but now it's time I got one of my own.

Well, 50c for a spoke and EUR9.50 for labour. Sounds about right.

I'd be interested in getting a truing stand too if anyone has a recommendation. I've only seen the Minoura and Park ones.

budget one available here from SJS cycles in the UK. Thinking about getting this or asking Santa for it. €50 or so, incl. postage costs i would say. Can't see why you'd want to spend more.
