....... A truing stand being one of them,which I don't want to pay £200 for tbh.Goodluck.

Spreading, aka cold setting; is possible on steel frames ONLY. It is the symmetrically widening of the section of the frame that holds the rear wheel.

Truing stand - build your own. http://forums.bikeride.com/thread-3834.html
