Central Alberta Bicycle School (CABS) is excited to announce the launch of a brand new service – the Bicycle Spoke Tension Meter Calibration. This service, in combination with our specially designed Spoke Tension Meter Calibration jig, is set to revolutionize the way bicycle mechanics measure and calibrate the tension of their bicycle spokes.
