Louet S-96 Victoria Oak Spinning Wheel

The Louet Victoria Spinning Wheel has Scotch tension: single belt, flyer drive with an adjustable bobbin brake to regulate the tension on the yarn that you are spinning. The flyer fits into the rear bearing magnetically. 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 5 ½ in. x 14 ¼ in. x 21 ¾ in. It includes a lazy kate with two extra bobbins (3 total included).
