I noticed this as well with the TS-2 and 100mm hubs. This is a pain because even if the wheel is perfectly dished, one or the other of the spring loaded caliper arms will be rubbing against the rim (also a pain when you're just starting a 130-135mm wheel and it isn't dished yet). It would be nice if there were an easy way to lock one or the other of the arms back out of the way so you can use it as a single-sided truing stand and also decide which of the two arms you want to use as the reference. I suppose you could tie one back with a piece of wire or a cable tie or something.
