Im lookin at the ultimate pro truing stand, but the park TS-5 is super cheap.. can anyone help me out with some recommendations for a decent stand at a decent price? I'd rather not spend over 75$.

thanks

I have to vote against the Ultimate Pro stand. It will only work with axles no bigger than 10mm and the attachment method is funky.

I have it and I still ended up buying a Park Pro stand.

I once knew of a Minoura stand that was ok. For truing wheels I suppose the cheap park is fine, but if you are building, I would recommend saving for a TS-2. I waited on a coupon at Nashbar and bought mine for $125 a few years back. Well worth it.

park ts-2...worth every penny...you definatly wont be dissatisfied with it, best and only truing stand you'll need...they're pretty much THE most stable stand i've used

I had the Park TS-7 consumer truing stand, and still bought the TS-2. I won't use any other stand, best one IMO. Since most of the shops use the TS-2, there must be something in that.
