Hozan Spoke Threading Tool

All self sufficient bicycle mechanics need to be able to cut spokes to length—there are far too many types to keep a ready back stock. The solution is a small, hand crank spoke threader and Hozan is certainly the best of these. Features While such tools have been made by Hozan and Cyclo (UK) for generations, this latest model—C702—offers several important new features: The spoke is clamped by a three jaw chuck, like a drill. It is quick to load and easy to keep tight. The previous method was like a cable pinch mechanism, not suited to smooth wire trying to rotate. The spindle on which the threading head is fixed now has graduated marks so thread length can be consistent. The tool body is reinforced, stiffer and more rugged than before. All of this means you will get many years of fast spoke making, empowering your repair services and liberating riders from the curse of spoke breakage. Background The tool comes with a 14G head. Replacements and a head for 13G are available separately.
