If anyone is interested or thinking of buying a truing jig;

I just bought a Minoura FT-1 Wheel Truing Base from Merlin, just under 80GBP with an addition 10% off at the checkout.

Bearing in mind that many truing stand cost a small fortune, I would recommend this one to anyone wanting maintain their own wheels.

    Does it work for 20mm front and 150mm x 12mm rear axles?

    Probobly not 20mm, but I see no reason why a 150 x 12 would not go in.

    Judging by the pic, a 20mm should be fine. Just bung a normal QR though it and tighten it up nice and tight. That should hold it firm enough, and the arm etc, will work whether centered on an axle or not.
