Now point me in the direction of a carbon disc rim with high enough quality to actually NEED such a precise tool.

In reply to nooner. "There’s also a spoke tension component that can be added aftermarket, making it an impressive way to build insanely precise wheels. It also will run $2,350 for the full setup."

In reply to nooner. The islandix system does measure tension, but requires an upgrade to add extra ports and a tension meter with a Mitutoyo gauge like the Wheel Fanatyk digimatic. You can run the tension feature with the normal two bay port if you don't mind unplugging one of the rim runout gauges to free up a cable to read tension.

In reply to nooner. With a compatible tensiometer (e.g. Wheel Fanatyk, Sapim, etc) you can record tension stats and produce graphs of spoke tension.

Looks like a very fancy way to measure rim runout. Does this device measure and record spoke tension as well?
