It's a 2 hour show so that's valuable wheel building time on the coffee table so that's a win-win. I have to deliver 2 more wheels to a customer today. But I have always been frustrated with having to turn the wheel back and forth in the stand all the time, constantly flip flopping and then checking the centering on a bike frame. In the end it works out, but it just takes so darn long. And she's not too keen on bikes in the living room.
A quality stand may, but I thought this thread is about the Minoura stand?
