Fits perfectly on my rims

Fits perfectly on my 18 year old Mavic rims. My bike had a minor accident and the front rim was adjusted so I had to fix it.

After reading some reviews that said it would fit some Mavic spokes but not all I took a chance and went with this one and it fit perfectly. rim like new.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Mostly good but...

Solid tool - room for v2

Great tool - for the price it would be better if it had a slightly beveled edge to make it easier to fit the splines - but like the weight and length - it makes up for it great to straighten the wheel.

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Not sure

After that, you really need a basic Mavic spoke nipple tool when trying to fix a wheel or remove a spoke. Because of its length, the tool does not rotate 360 degrees. It has to be constantly removed and…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • New competitors have emerged
