Motorcycle Wheel Balancer
A good tyre change deserves a good balance job. The Rabaconda Motorcycle Wheel Balancer is the last step in the process. It turns a mounted tyre into a mounted-and-dialed tyre, so your first ride on fresh rubber feels like it should.
The frame runs on sealed ball bearings with low rotational friction, which matters because a static balancer is only as accurate as its ability to settle. The HACS™ (Hand-Adjustable Cone System) lets you dial the cone to your specific axle diameter by hand, no tools required, so the wheel sits centered and true before you spin it. The shaft is 12mm in diameter; the cones top out at 35mm standard, and with the Rabaconda Universal Big Hub Adapter or BMW Shaft Drive Adapter, fitment extends out to 72mm.
The powder-coated steel construction is rigid and durable, and the adjustable feet mean it sits level on surfaces that aren't. The design is gravity-driven, so if your bench isn't perfectly level, it doesn't matter; the wheel still finds its heavy spot.
When you're done, it mounts to the wall. The included wall-mount bracket is there for the majority of garages, trailers and toy haulers where bench real estate is spoken for. Bolt it up, hang the balancer, and it's out of the way until you need it.
The full kit breaks down in seconds and fits into the included Carry Bag, which has storage compartments for small tools like wheel weights, the included Wheel Weight Remover Knife, and the two Allen keys that ship with it. There's also a built-in magnet for the Allen keys, because a 4mm and 5mm that disappear into a drawer are keys you're buying again. The balancer also fits directly into the Street Bike Tyre Changer's Carry Bag if you're already running that kit and want to consolidate.
Best for: anyone using the Street Bike Tyre Changer or Dirt Bike Tyre Changer who wants to close out the job properly, home mechanics who want dealership-quality balance without the appointment, and anyone who's felt the wobble and would like to never feel it again.
Note: Wheel weights are not included. A Wheel Weight Remover Knife is included.

FAQ
Do I need to level it, or use a bubble level?
No leveling needed. Just adjust the two feet so it sits steady on your bench or wall mount. The shaft has grooves that prevent axial movement, and gravity pulls the heaviest spot down regardless of the angle the balancer is sitting at.
What's the shaft diameter and cone size?
Shaft diameter is 12mm; the cones have a maximum diameter of 35mm standard. For bigger hubs, the Universal Big Hub Adapter (32-68mm) or BMW Shaft Drive Adapter (62/72mm) extend that range.
Does it work with single-sided swingarm wheels?
Yes, the Street Bike Tyre Changer's Universal Big Hub Adapter (32-68mm) and BMW Shaft Drive Type Adapter (62/72mm) are both compatible with the Wheel Balancer too.
Should I remove the sprocket and brake disc before balancing?
Generally no, it's recommended to leave them on. That way the wheel you're balancing matches what it will actually feel like once it's back on the bike and in use.
Are wheel weights included?
No, the balancer ships with a Wheel Weight Remover Knife, but wheel weights themselves are sold separately.
Does it pair with a specific tyre changer?
It's designed as the natural companion to the Street Bike Tyre Changer and also works alongside the Dirt Bike Tyre Changer. It even fits inside the Street Bike Tyre Changer's carry bag if you want to consolidate gear.
Is it a static or dynamic balancer?
Static: the wheel spins freely on sealed bearings and gravity settles the heavy spot at the bottom of its rotation, which is the standard approach for home and small-shop use.
Where do I position the wheel supports on the wheel for the most accurate balance?
Position the wheel supports, standard or Carbon Fibre, all the way out toward the edge of the wheel's diameter, near the tyre, but resting on the wheel itself rather than the tyre. That gives the most accurate read on the wheel's actual balance point.
Will the Universal Big Hub Adapter or BMW Adapter fit every BMW model?
Not universally. A small number of BMW hubs, certain F800GT model years among them, are narrower than either adapter is designed for. If an adapter doesn't seat properly on your BMW wheel, contact us with your model and year and we'll help confirm the right fit before you order a replacement part.
Is a static balancer as accurate as the dynamic machines shops use?
For street and dirt bike wheels at home-mechanic speeds, yes. A static balancer settles the heavy spot accurately using gravity alone, the same principle professional static balancers use trackside. Dynamic (spin) balancing machines are built for high-volume shop use and aren't typically necessary for a home garage.
Customer Reviews
Overall rating: 4.8 / 5 from 67 reviews.
Perfect. Works great! Sets up fast. Love the possibility to hang it on the wall
I really liked everything about the Wheel balancer, especially the fact that Rabaconda ship it out with a bracket to hang it up on a wall - so far Great! Unfortunately when I unpacked my wheel balancer the adjusting screw on the base plate was damaged. Which really spoiled the moment for me. I am trying to reach Rabaconda support for help on this matter - hopefully they will assist me.
Easy to mount and use, Excellent bearings
it works okej
You are the best!
Avrei preferito che i coni sull'asse fossero stati molto più precisi. Peccato!
Store owner replied: La precisione dei coni sull'asse non influisce sull'equilibratura del pneumatico. Anche con un leggero gioco, l'asse centrale garantisce un risultato preciso e affidabile. Un adattamento più stretto non migliorerebbe il risultato dell'equilibratura. Se hai bisogno di ulteriori chiarimenti, non esitare a contattarci. Ride safe,
Nice product and good that it comes in a bag. Despite the good packaging, one of the plastic knobs was broken. For a premium product, I would also expect to have a built-in level on the stand itself, rather than needing to use my own leveller.
Gut verarbeitet und einfach von der Bedienung. Schnell und unkompliziert zum aufbauen. Jedoch fehlt mir ein Fühler zum messen des Höhen- Seitenschlag. Weiters fehlt mir eine Libellen Waage.
Es ist richtig, richtig cool. Montage gleich einfach wie handhabung. Es dauert keine 5Minuten bis der neue Reifen drauf ist. Top
This is excellent, very well made, can be wall mounted too, brilliant.
I love the easy assembly and disassembly for storage.
Bestes Wucht Gerät
Works great, I use in the workshop and bring it to the racetrack. No problems!
Très précis.
Leveling the balancer's base on the bench took a little bit, but otherwise it works great.
Good quality product. Bit expensive, wouldn’t probably have bought it with 189€, but wit a bundle with street changer, it wasn’t too bad.
Super Teil 😀
Allt är verkligen riktigt bra, intuitivt och kvalitetsmässigt hög hög nivå.

FAST DELIVERY, EXCELLENT PRODUCT
Top!👍
Kit is easy to assemble well built with tools provided, but I love the hold-all it keeps the parts separate and stops damage, even has a pouch for weight scrapper and weights, I also ordered the ultimate street tyre changer (works great ), but let down a bit by the hold-all ( not as well thought out)
Bom produto, fácil de usar.
This tyre balancer is for life, you won't get better the quality of all of the components are superb. I actually enjoyed changing and balancing my tyres with the Rabaconda kits. Well done guys for making a superbly designed and manufactured biking dream.
Hej Ser bra ut har inte haft tid att annvända den ännu Paketet var mycket väl packat inga skador
👍

Really nice product.
great tool
Nice build quality and works as good as expected from all the info. Brilliant tool!
super
Amazing!!
First time changing moto tires by myself. I started with hard tires mounted on rims with external nobs… 😅 After looking how to use the tire changer correctly and using the right adaptors it has been easy and intuitive. The tire changer is easy to set and easy to tide up. Thanks for issuing this great tool!
