This makes everything wheel and tire related 100% easier. I wish I would have bought it so much sooner than I did. Love it.

I finally bought a Park tool that, although built like a tank, is USELESS for a bike with a QR spindle (out of the box).Ikept it because I am a Park Tools guy, and it will work for some bikes, as sent.I use the hardened steel bolt from my Deuter stationary trainer, QR aide in, cog out, and it holds well enough to change a tube and tire without destroying the axle. This same procedure would destroy my normal road axle if I tried this.While I was super disappointed to see that a hardened QR axle hadn't been included, I do like and use the tool. Shouldn't have to do a thing except install and use.Not worth the money.

Changed both my mtb wheels, so I got this before I started the job, excellent piece of kit, it helped tremendously, no more trying to balance wheels on the bench. Fit's nicely in the vice and makes it easier to work on your wheels.

What a great device! It's simple, easy-to-use, and makes bicycle wheel maintenance SO much easier!The wheel holder includes axles for various types of wheels, but accommodates quick-release wheels without the need for one of the supplied axles.The wheels are held securely, so even when wrestling with a tough-to-remove/replace tire, the whole assembly stays steady and secure. Would that I'd had this tool years ago!As can be seen in the images, it doesn't require a large vise to hold the WH-1, (or WH-2 for that matter), to your workbench; even a medium sized 'quick clamp', such an Irwin Quick Clamp, would probably hold the WH-1 in place securely if you do not own a vise.Another 'plus' about the WH-1, and the WH-2 as well, is how much easier it is to clean the wheels.The WH-1 is a bit pricey but just with the few uses it's had, I feel it's worth every penny.

I made the switch to tubeless recently and decided to pick up this tool. Like all Park products it is excellent and I think it makes tire work much easier. Easy to set up in a vice and simple to mount wheels at multiple angles. For tubeless especially it makes taping and other tasks much more pleasant.

I bit the bullet on this because it's such a pain to work on wheels (esp hub adjustments) and this tool makes it so much more convenient. I have 3 bikes - mtb, hybrid, and road, all with QR skewers. Only the more recent road bike Bontrager branded skewer did not fit into the cutout hole. This can be readily addressed by either reversing the skewer so that the lever is on the top/outside, or buying a cheap pair of low profile skewers on Amazon for less than $8. The tool is solid with versatile mounting options, and I'm sure working on wheels will be a lot more enjoyable. But the price - ouch.

This park tool is a good tool for working on a Bike wheel. It allows for better control and stability since the hub sits on tool stub and it can be move to change the position of the wheel. The unit is kind of pricey at $100. But if you need a tool that holds the wheel while you’re working on the tube/tire and you got a bench table to mount it then, it’s a tool to have when working on a bicycle.

Excellent bike shop aid! Works well with through-axle and skewer wheel types! Makes tire changing and hub servicing significantly easier!

Although the price tag is steep on this one for what it does, it is worth it if you work on wheels much. It will securely hold a wheel with any standard hub (quick release or standard sizes of through axle) in one of three different positions; vertical (good for distributing sealant, tensioning spokes, etc.), horizontal (good for dishing, installing cassettes/rotors, etc.), and 30 degrees (good for almost anything else - GREAT for replacing tubes/tires). It can bolt to your workbench, or be clamped if you don't want it permanently attached. It can also be held in your vise pretty securely.The price tag did make me hesitate, but I'm very glad I pulled the trigger on this. It will make several awkward jobs much more enjoyable every time I do them.

Very solid piece of kit. Works well. A little over priced though given the materials and simplicity of construction
