I worked in a bike shop and used these every day. They are ‘one size fits one size’, but they are the best tool I’ve found. I’ve never seen one broken, and have used several in my short career in college that showed much use over the years.Yes, there are different sized spoke nipples, but that’s true with most things. Try to use the same Allen wrench on every screw on a bike. Try using the same socket or combination wrench on all of the bolts on a bike. Heck, in my career, there were sometimes differences between one model year and another, and yes between one bike and another. It’s a weird world at times.If you are stuck, go to a local bike shop and ask, or take a wheel in and show them, or if you know someone with either a micrometer or a caliper gauge, they might be able to measure the nipples and tell you. Worst case, you order the three sizes most common (the blue one isn’t common except for expensive bikes) and you return the ones that don’t fit.Just be careful. You *can* ‘taco’ a wheel if you aren’t careful. If the wheel was backed over or runs out more than a fraction of an inch, you and Superman aren’t likely to be able to ‘fix’ it. Pulling the nipples through the rim is a show stopper…

FINALLY !A spoke wrench that fits perfectly on my heavy duty cruiser bike. I have been putting off truing the rims as I was buying crappy multi guage spoke wrenches that didn’t fit right for one thing, and would’ve scratched up my spokes anyway. I didn’t want to round off the nipples and ruin them or scratch my spokes all up.NOW I can tackle that task with confidence.Thank you, Park Tool.Excellent spoke wrench.

High quality, as you would expect from Park Tool more often than not. I find this to be faster and less clumsy than universal wheel-types. It fits well either directly onto the spoke nipple or by sliding from the spoke onto the end of it, to which the curved loop lends itself. Plus, being a single size, it eliminates the need to check for or find the right size slot, which gets old quick when you’re dealing with multiple spokes.Protip: Use a decent caliper and get an actual measurement of your spoke nipples (not the spoke wire, by the way) for the proper wrench size. I’ve got a 2020 Jamis with 3.30mm nipples on WTB disc wheels. Pretty modern, no? If I’d listened to the use suggestion – “not as common on modern bicycles” – I’d still be guessing which one to get.If you don’t have calipers in your toolbox, what are you even doing with your life? They’re not that much, just …ahem… get a pair.

These Park Tool spoke wrenches are the best I’ve found for adjusting spoke tension.It’s quick to get on/off, and although it occasionally slips off, is far easier to work with than the other spoke wrenches. It’s best to have one that fits exactly your wheel, rather than one with several sizes.And it’s ergonomically bent to fit, so you get used to how to fit it quickly and rotate it an exact amount for each spoke. It’s not worth it to mess with anything else, unless Park Tool improves on this design.In addition, a spoke tension gauge is essential to avoid over-tightening. At first I thought pinging the spokes would be enough. And yes, that will get you somewhat close, so it’s still useful. But a spoke tension gauge is essential for dialing in the correct tension for your spoke type and maintaining consistency while loosening/tightening nearby spokes. It is awkward to use, and costs much more than this spoke wrench, but worth it. (Doesn’t need to be the same brand.)What I would change:* Figure out a way to keep it from falling off the spoke as you turn it (the bend and plastic wrap help, but not enough)You get the feeling this process should be automatic. That a spoke wrench should be combined with a tension gauge and tighten it to the correct tension with a single button press. But until that is invented, this spoke tension tool is essential.

I do all my own builds on my bikes. I have built several wheelers and still do my own trying and spike replacements. With the newer wheelers coming along, the spike nipples can be of any size depending on the spoke gauge used. There are other combo wrenches but once you find the right size, you don’t have to fumble around trying to refind that right slot if that combo happens to spin to a different size. That happens a lot when I use that type. With these color coded ones from Park Tools you do make that annoying mistake.
