Highly recommend Adam Savage’s latest video!

He spent years using a bike as his primary transit in NYC and understands the freedom it brings. Nice to see a prominent voice validating that we don't need 4,000lb boxes just to navigate a city.

TS-TA Thru Axle Adapter This simple adapter installs onto any thru axle hub so the wheel can be used in any Park Tool truing stand.

For your type of stand, you'd need an adapter like this one. If that's more than you care to spend, you can always DIY with a ~12 mm threaded rod from the hardware store 🙂

My understanding is that those tools are mostly for mounting - this is intended strictly for unseating the bead. It’s a very specific tool, and maybe not for everyone, but it’s very good at what it does, and we think mechs who deal with a lot of tight tubeless setups will appreciate it.
