Abbey Tools Wheel Lacing Stand
The Abbey Tools Wheel Lacing Stand is another item from the Noble Catalog, a small tool maker from London who started as a wheel-building specialist. This tool is pretty basic in purpose; it supports the hub and rim of a wheel independently while you are putting the spokes into it. This adds a good amount of speed to the start of the wheel-building process with a 20% time savings! Perhaps the biggest benefit of the lacing stand is the ergonomic benefit. With the parts supported in the stand, you no longer have to crouch over the rim on your lap. This is a big joy to the backs of wheel builders everywhere!
- Compatible with quick-release, 12 or 15 millimeters thru axle hubs
- Compatible with rim diameters from 12″-29″/700c

Wolf Tooth Components
Ripsaw Aluminum Pedals
The Wolf Tooth Ripsaw Aluminum Pedals feature a slim, lightweight design with a slight convex profile. The large, asymmetric aluminum platform provides strong foot support for all-mountain riding, while the minimal convex profile is just 7mm thick at the leading edge. These are designed for cyclists who prefer a mid-foot riding position, where the ball of the foot is in front of the pedal spindle, and the arch of the foot aligns with the convex arch in the center of the pedal.
Inside Ripsaw Aluminum Pedals are a 17-4 stainless steel axle, three sealed cartridge bearings, and one igus bushing with a custom radial seal to protect internal components from trail debris and dirt.

Fat Paw Lock-On Grips bring the same texture and feel of the popular Fat Paw silicone foam grips to the lock-on grip format.
