Sapim Bladed Spoke Holder
| Availability: | Out of stock |
Sapim Bladed Spoke Holder is a dedicated tool designed to prevent spoke wind-up when building or tensioning wheels with bladed spokes. By securely holding the spoke at the blade section, it ensures accurate tensioning and proper spoke alignment throughout the wheelbuilding process.
Without a spoke holder, bladed spokes can twist during tensioning, leading to inaccurate tension readings and compromised wheel stability. This tool eliminates that issue, making it a critical addition for any build using aero or bladed spokes.
Features
- Prevents spoke twist during tensioning and truing
- Improves accuracy of spoke tension and final wheel balance
- Four slot sizes: 0.9 mm / 1.1 mm / 1.3 mm / 1.5 mm
- Compatible with Sapim CX-Ray, CX-Sprint, and similar bladed spokes
- Works with stainless steel and titanium bladed spoke designs
- Compact and easy to use during all stages of wheelbuilding
Best For
Essential for any wheel build using bladed spokes, including Sapim CX-Ray, CX-Sprint, and other aero spoke designs. Particularly important for lightweight and high-tension builds where spoke twist can negatively affect accuracy and long-term durability.
This tool is strongly recommended for both professional wheelbuilders and experienced home mechanics working with performance wheelsets.
Wheelbuilding Notes
During tensioning, hold the spoke at the bladed section using the appropriately sized slot to prevent rotation. This ensures accurate tension readings and maintains proper spoke alignment.
Pair this tool with bladed spokes such as Sapim CX-Ray spokes or Sapim CX-Sprint spokes for optimal results in custom wheel builds.
