Through Axle Truing Stand Adaptors

Does anybody know of a through axle adapter that is both 12 and 15mm?

Like these guys from problem solvers, but 12/15 not 10/12 or 15/20?

I have a set (one pair of 12,15 and 20) of these. Pretty quick to just pop them in and out. And, I never got around to getting a QR skewer long enough. I use a TS-2.2 (and have used a TS-3 with them) and tightening the stand arms against the hub is plenty adequate so I don't mess with securing hubs with a skewer.

I think the Park and Abbey "rods" get you from 12-20 and all in between, but that's a little different than what you're after and you are probably aware of them.

Correct, the park and abbey rods definitely work. I've got a travel toolbox I'm putting together, so those rods are a bit bigger than I want to mess with. I've got a set of the Problem Solvers 15/20mm, so I guess I'll just grab the ones you linked off ebay in 12mm - I'd seen those before while poking around.

me too, even though I make an attachment for Park TS-2.2 stands so you can true 5" fatbike wheels with the tire on that works with any TA wheel.

Excellent. Work as advertised. Nice quality. Not super expensive. $20 you get both 12 and 15 and done
