Questions about this product

Can I use this tension meter on both my mountain bike and road bike wheels?: Yes, you can use it on both. The tool is designed to fit standard mountain and road bike wheels. It works on spokes ranging from thin road profiles to thicker downhill MTB spokes.
What spoke thicknesses and tension limits can this tool actually measure?: This meter measures spoke diameters from 1.5mm up to 2.5mm. It reads relative deflection-based tension across a 0 to 100 scale. This translates to a measurement range of 100 to 2000 Newtons.
What is included in the package when I buy this tool?: You will receive the handheld tension meter unit itself. It also comes with a protective storage case to keep the analog gauge safe in your workshop or toolbox.
