Talk:Spoke wrench

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Somebody please relate the sizes commonly referred to when people try to actually buy a spoke wrench (8,10,11,12,13,14, etc) to the exact inch and metric measurements. CountMacula (talk) 15:20, 4 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I would be interested in that too. My spoke wrench has the sizes 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 and 15e. I have no idea what the measure, but the 10 is the widest, and the 15e appears to be the narrowest (narrower than the 15). The crazy thing is, my local bike shop's repairman uses a key which has the same numberings (except with out the 15e), but the 10 is the narrowest and the 15 the widest. What gives??? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Betathetapi545 (talkcontribs) 15:14, 7 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Park Tools

[edit]

"Removed "Park Tool" column from table. Park Tool is simply a brand name, and having their model numbers/sizes does not make sense. Other brands manufacture spoke keys as well, but we do not include their model numbers in the table." - Blakebcg (talk | contribs)

Since Park Tool is a manufacturer notable enough for its own wikipedia article, it makes perfect sense to list their spoke wrench sizes. See the comments above for why readers want all the sizing information they can get, especially manufacturer's sizes. If you want to list another notable manufacturer's sizes, feel free. -AndrewDressel (talk) 19:21, 28 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Topeak

[edit]

Topeak no longer offers spoke wrenches, so the table's Topeak nipple size reference has been changed to Park's nipple size reference and the Topeak category in the table has been removed. - 173.20.146.107 (talk) 02:03, 26 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
