Review on Park Tool Professional Truing Rebuild by Alex Solano

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Tight, but not a cigar!

Good quality parts; However, the instructions are silent about the critical step of threading both ends of the double ended bolt at the same time. Also, the instructions mention the need for an expensive park centering/aligning tool to properly center the rim caliper arm between the vertical arms. Luckily I have this item, as do most if not all bike shops; However, the average home mechanic doesn't usually do this. So, to properly complete the restoration, the average Joe would have to bring his rebuilt TS-2 to LBS and politely ask them if they would level it, or at least lend them a local true-truing tool for a few minutes. .

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Big and bulky
