Description   S51DT The recent popularity of double treadle wheels combined with Louëts durable design and leading edge technology lead us to the S51 DT. It treadles smoothly in a similair bicycle fashion as the S77. (Each foot travels in the opposite direction) Accessories available for the S51-DT include: skeinwinder, distaff, a four bobbin lazy kate, high speed bobbin, fatcore bobbin, flyers, and various spareparts. The S-51 comes with 3 standard bobbins.   Features Spinning Wheels for everyone... For over a quarter century, the Louët team in Holland has been researching, designing, experimenting, and consulting with you, the customer, to create a superior line of spinning wheels. Louët wheels treadle lightly, are low maintenance and nearly adjustment free and can be modified with accessories for the expert spinner. Louët wheels were originally geared towards spinning medium to heavy yarns. Although bobbins and flyers are available for spinning this type of yarn, the standard wheels have been redesigned to be more suitable for spinning fine to medium yarns. The orifice on the standard wheel is sufficiently large (12.5 mm or 1/2") as are the bobbins, (180-250 gr capacity), to allow you to create novelty yarns. Wheels come equipped with a two bobbin lazy kate. Technically all Louet models are the same. Each wheel has a single belt bobbin drive with an adjustable flyer brake to regulate the tension. The flexible belts are made of polyurethane and never have to be adjusted. All wheels are packed and shipped partially assembled in a flat box. The required assembly consists quite simply of tightening two nuts for which tools and instructions are provided. The shipping weight is 17-18 lbs. Average Customer Review: Based on 2 Reviews.

Spins like a dream November 8, 2007 Reviewer: Debbie Nelsen from Appleton, WI United States   I have been spinning for over 20 years on a double driveband single treadle wheel and have always felt like I was fighting with the wheel.  I tried the S51DT and was instantly spinning lace weight yarn! It is so easy to treadle and the tension is very easily adjusted.  The design is modern and efficient. I highly recommend the double treadle as it is relaxing. Was this review helpful to you?

Perfect wheel for me November 7, 2007 Reviewer: Zen String from Austin, TX United States   I have been using this wheel for 6 months, and adore it. It is very intuitive and straight-forward. If you will be plying 3 or more ply yarns, the extra lazy kate is worth it! This is my first wheel, but I do not feel I will outgrow it quickly, with all the additional options I can add as I expand my spinning skills. Was this review helpful to you?
