Review on DT Swiss Tool Spoke Wrench by Larry Boyd

Revainrating 5 out of 5

One of the best nipple wrenches I've ever used

One of the best nipple wrenches I've ever used. Not good for the first pass of tightening newly built wheels as it's a bit slow to locate the four sides to fall on the nipple, but it's really excellent for fine tuning each spoke once you have the wheel at 90% to have. I appreciate the leverage (read control) you have with wide fenders and the lighter weight makes it very comfortable to use. If you frequently adjust spoke nipples or build complete wheels, you'll need this nipple wrench in your tool tray.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Ugly packaging
