This is a good demo of the tool. I like that there is a method to calibrate the tool.

[@martywilson3272]

Hi. How do we from the chart work out what our spoke tension should be? I'm fine with putting in spoke size, material etc. It's going down the chart that I don't understand what i'm looking for?

[@LEDking1]

Really good videos§ you have cool dialect

[@ScreamerTR]

Looks like a nice tool.

Iis this calibration spoke available as a spare? 1:44

Podríais tener en cuenta que el español es uno de los idiomas más hablados del mundo e introducir un manual en español con el producto. Además de indicar como leer o utilizar la tabla de valores.

How much for a calibration gauge?

[@tkorst]

The Data sheet needs values for Spinergy PBO spokes..

[@AlexUrbinaTubii9]

Question. I know that my spoke is 2 mm. How can I determinate what is the correct tension number. Can I use any tension number?

[@FantaFuture92]

All spokes should be the same on one side with minor differences. Parktool has an app. Use that.

[@CmdrTigerKing]

never understood the design... its such a pain in the ass to use

[@thedownunderverse]

What do you recomend?

[@CmdrTigerKing]

@@thedownunderverse one which can check tension without changing sides / angles

[@thedownunderverse]

@@CmdrTigerKing like what brand/model?

[@NatalieUoker]

This tool is crap. If I put calibration gauge (sticker number is 61) I must screw in adjustment bolt almost to the end (I can not add more tension to the spring). Then if I measure properly build and tensioned wheel, this tool give me numbers that that point to empty fields in printed table. I do not recommend to spend that lot of many for not properly working tool.

I'd like to add some information, which might be helpful for others:
out of the box, the accuracy was not satisfying (ca. 2 units on the scale, which converts to ~ 30 kg for a 1.8 mm spoke).
the problem is the high friction of the washers at the hand at the rough metal surface of the tool
after tuning it a little bit, the accuracy is ~ 1 unit, which I think is okay.
- I've polished the region, where the washers under the hand glide, using a satin finishing tool (something like: www.kemperkontakt.de/index.php?id=45&L=1)
- and bended the arm a little bit to reduce friction
(remark: both steps after disassembling the tool)
- eventually, I'll replace the washers under the hand with ones made of Teflon

As a recent buyer, I did experience the same problem as you did and my solution is similar.
Have you found a way to calculate values for spokes not listed in the conversion chart?

[@gul7809]

@@TimothyApe no, sorry. having the gauge just for a couple of days, and all my spoke dimensions are listed (furtunately)
