"Your probably not that spot on actually for as Maj has allready said the resistance to rotation that the seals have on the axle shaft would require much more than 5 grams to over come"
How do you work that out? if i put 5grms on either side and the wheel falls to that side the 5gm has overcome the resistance. You jiggle the axle to "break" the inertia or overcome the resistance of the seals.
If you use the method of having the top of the stand horizontal and letting the axle rotate the seals have no impact.
I may not be that spot on but "on" enough to not feel any wobble at all when I go down the back straight at EC at 230+. Thats good enough for me, it may not be for others.
Im not telling anyone to balance their tyres the way I do just that you dont need stands with roller bearings to do it - but if you want to go for it.
Perfection is not required.
Cheers
