Oh man, how the heck did I missed this? Very helpful, thank you!
Did you adjust the tool yet? Just bought one Anrancee brand. No adjustment bolt on the back but looks like it can easily be disassembled with allen wrench then Replacing the spring or re tensioning it might work.
First time using it and feels a bit stiff so I need to pull it apart and slide a little to get readings right each and every time. Oiled the spring and might oil the overlapping tight parts. It seems to read quite accurately.
Tested with a built wheelset and another I custom made at home and I think my finger plucking tension meter was good enough after all because I haven't had to adjust too much yet. Wheel trued also by using only a zip tie.
It’s not really recommended you adjust the tool. At least that’s what the instruction manual says
Yes. Maybe when the time comes that it is no longer accurate or springs have worn out. Park tool recommends taking it back to them. I am not really concerned about adjustments since I dont have the tool to measure exact kgf accuracy. Reliability and durability in the long run is what I was trying to improve. Balanced readings should matter just as well as accuracy.@@TonyHob
Can i use this tool on a 26 inch fatbike wheel or is the base to wide ?
I tried it on a regular 26” wheel and it works. I imagine the 26” fat bike should be fine
@@TonyHob Thanks Tony .
Would you be able to share the instructions and especially the tables? Mine was missing, too.
That would be really great
Look for other Generic brands online. They usually display the charts next to the item they sell. Park tool has a different chart compared to the chinese generic brands. They dont need to be exact just make sure they are even and has the average right amount of tension. My tool is new and stiff so I just slide it a little to get maximum tension reading. Combine with finger plucking sound checking is usually accurate too.
I just use my calibrated fingers 🤷🏻♂️
It's actually not a bad way to do it either, LOL!
They sound the same? like a guitar string?|
Hi there on my scale and my bike Some of the spokes on my roadbike read 26 and 27 but most read 25
Do you by chance know what is the KGF rating on mt sapim strong spokes? and what number on this tool I should ensure the spokes read? the tool goes from 0-45 reading

Rim brand determines maximum KGF required. Tension meter Charts have spoke size labels as reference.
how does it compare to, let's say ParkTool tensiometer ?
No idea. It does work like it’s supposed to though, so I have no complaints or need for the Park version
hmm, mine came without the instructions. that would've been helpful lol
😂
So, this tool is durable enough that it's still not broken after 2 years?
mine is still working well
