The standard ratios are higher than those of the first generation, which makes it easier to spin very fine yarns. When using the highspeed set the ratio increases even further.
Victoria is available in a lacquered beech (S95) and a lacquered oak version (S96). The double treadle Victoria wheel folds down to 14 x 36 x 55 cm (5 1/2" x 14 1/4" x 21 3/4". It contains a lazy kate with two extra bobbins (3 total included).
CARRYING CASE IS NOW ORDERED SEPARATELY. A carrying case can be purchased under our Spinning Accessories page.
This is the lightest traveling wheel with the most effortless folding mechanism; it folds quickly and easily with the push of a button on the back of the main upright post. Once folded, the Victoria fits snugly into its small bag that is rated to fit in airline carry-on compartments.
