Park WAG-5 Portable Wheel Dishing Gauge
StarStarStarStarStar 4.5 of 5 stars average ( 4 reviews )
For a wheel to perform properly, it is important for the rim to be centered between the locknuts of the hub, or, "dished". The WAG-5 accurately gauges dish on 24" to 29" wheels. Disassembles quickly for storage or travel and works with all hub types.

StarStarStarStarStar Worth the money

by Sinnister Crankster
Ownership: a month
Tech Knowledge: somewhat high

Pros

Quick measuring even with the tire on
Simple, easy to use design

Cons

Takes up a lot of space, not great for traveling

Other Thoughts

After breaking spokes and changing out freehubs on several sets of my wheels and a couple for some friends this tool was the MVP of the day, along with my truing stand and tension meter. It's not very packable like Park Tools other option but this one will let you keep the tires on, I guess that's the payoff you have to choose between...

StarStarStarStarStar Simple and quick, easy to use

by Phillip W. of Plano, TX
Ownership: two months

I thought that it wouldn't have been needed, but I bought a new park professional truing stand to build wheels and get them true and perfect. I put a brand new never ridden on Zipp 202s on to check and they were not properly dished. That is they were not centered when the axle was flipped end for end in the stand. I then bought the dish tool and centering caliper to make sure the stand as centered and to make sure the wheel was properly dished. I had thought that I could get the dish right by flipping the wheel axle end for end in the stand, but the dishing tool is a much better check, way easy to use, The caliper shouldn't have been off, but can be off by a mm or two very easily.

Unless you're building 24" and smaller wheels, this is the dish stick to use
