Research and Development of the "12mm Spindle Kit - Universal"

Research and Development of the "12mm Spindle Kit - Universal"

At DBB Powersports, our mission is to support riders like you in advancing their skills while avoiding the challenges we've encountered in our own motorcycle journeys. This product represents another step in fulfilling that mission.

All of our products have been used and tested by us extensively. We've come to these conclusions not because we want to sell you a product but because we needed it for ourselves as professionals over and over again.

'12mm Spindle Kit - Grom' -> '12mm Spindle Kit - Universal'

This was a product of necessity when, after I had grown accustomed to using the Rabaconda Street Bike Tire Changer, I wanted to have the ability to change 12mm axle wheels/tires. We worked with Roger Albert at 'On Road Off Road Suspension' to get the product developed. After many revisions we have something that we are proud to be able to sell to motorcycle enthusiasts/professionals like ourselves.

Disclaimer: This product utilizes a 12mm Spindle

Please exercise caution when using this product, especially if you are accustomed to larger spindles. Proper technique and practice are even more critical, particularly with smaller spindles. While we've worked to provide the best alternative, it's crucial to respect the laws of physics. There's a 2ft lever trying to rotate the duckhead around the 12mm spindle. (It can/will bend if used improperly. Luckily, if a bend does occur, the steel we have used can be bent back many times before becoming unusable.) We've found it's best to bend it back in the machine by unscrewing it 1/4 turn and then applying pressure downwards at the point of the bend. Feel free to reach out to us if you have any questions and we will do our best to help.
