HOZANSpoke Threader

The best tool to have if you work on building or repairing wheelsets!

I was not initially stoked on the idea of the price of this tool... however, after getting it an using it, I understand that there are not many competitors out there and I was looking to save money over the long run. This will definitely save me money and I already fixed 4 different bike wheels with this one purchase. Know in advance that the directions are in Japanese, but they do have pictures to go with it. You can also find videos online on how to use it pretty easily. Does a great job cutting the threads for the spokes and would definitely recommend for a DIYer or someone who wants to work on your bikes independently.

Out of the box, after a practice spoke I was able to thread 4 stainless replacement spokes for a wheel set with minimal fuss. Threads looked as good as factory threads, and the DT swiss brass nipples seemed to fit the threads well. I did have an issue with a couple spokes getting caught in the die, after it failed to start and I had to fuss with the die a little. I think I solved that, and have a couple theories why it happened.It takes me about a minute or so to cut, and thread a spoke. Perfect for replacing a couple broken spokes and I bought my Hozan knowing it excels at this. For an entire wheel I would rather order custom spokes, or have them made at a local shop that has a $4000 Morizumi threader that can crank them out super fast.Overall I am happy because I can now stock high quality bulk spokes in 310mm lengths, and make what I need. Trying to keep a good assortment of replacement spokes on hand even was becoming a lost cause. Now I can keep about 4 styles of spoke and cover just about everything I see.Instructions are in Japanese, but you can find all you need to know from you tube and I was still able to figure out some useful details from the instructions like how the scale fore depth is graduated in 3mm increments.

el producto está bien y la entrega fue muy rapida

Exelente producto, rápida entrega.

It 's great to be able to thread your own spokes to whatever size you need. You can just order long spokes and cut them down.

does exactly what it's supposed to do ... have threaded 72 spokes for lacing 2 wheels and thread rolling tool has functioned well

I first purchased the Cyclo spoke threader. It was hard to use and finicky. It had plastic on one of the most important parts. Just overall sub-par quality. The Hozan is so much better! First, the threads are perfect no issue with rolling. The device is well made and is all metal. The roller needs to be oiled more than you think but it does a great job. Overall I'm glad I baught this. Cost more but is hands down a better product than the Cyclo.

Diese kleine Maschine erledigt ihren Job perfekt. Ich empfehle

I debated this or the Cyclo version, which was much cheaper, but having read the reviews, I decided on the Hozan threading machine.Unfortunately, this product seems unavailable in the UK, but I was able to buy it from the US via Amazon, which arrived a lot quicker than expected with import costs included was £112.The machine is simple to use, and I've done around 80 spokes. Some threads run smother than others, but no duff ones have been made so far. Keep the threading head lubricated and don't rush. Others use a drill to drive the handle, but you are just asking for trouble and risking damaging the head.Overall, I'm satisfied with it,does the job,maybe a little expensive but better that waiting for spokes to arrive.

I liked the tool👍But—-I am still wondering why the sent me two and charged my card for both of them.😏I used the second one as a present to my son that is into bikes.The one I kept was to rebuild my old trike.The bike shops in my community will not service.
