Speaking of truing stands, do you know if I can the center gauge for a
Minoura Workman Pro?
Minoura calls it the vertical shaking gauge.
I got this stand used, from a friend of mine, for the princely sum of
$10, but he can't seem to find the gauge. Why he removed it, is a
mystery to me.
Another question, spoke wrench sizes, is there a rule as to size of
nipples to type of wheel? Are most road wheels a #1 and mtb wheels a
#?, 27" wheels a #2?
