Now you lot out there are probably thinking, wait a minute there is nothing new in the 'Ti Parts Workshop' spanner that has an enclosed 15mm at one end and 10mm at the other. I was ignorant that such as thing existed and it would be true to say that when I saw this in action my jaw dropped. (I am easily pleased).
There are a few reasons I was so keen to get one. First it is really light in weight and takes up next to no space. On the sort of rides I go on this is a very bing plus point. Second it has the two spanner parts most useful. The 15mm for getting the wheels off and the 10mm for brakes, suspension block...
Normally I carry either two small spanners 15mm and 10mm or a box spanner. Either combination take up more room and are heavier.
You can probably get this wonder from several shops but I got mine from SJS Cycles for £19.99.
Thank you for bringing to my attention another thing that I simply must own! I'm trying to talk my self out of the overpriced Brompton tool kit and this is a good start!
ReplyDeleteDoes this mean you don't carry the Brompton tool kit.?
ReplyDeleteI have one but rarely use it.
DeleteAnother satisfied SJS customer here! Having been persuaded (I am very easily!) I too must have one of these miracle spanners, I entrusted my order to SJS, who have provided most excellent service in the past. They did not disappoint and I now own one of these wonders.
ReplyDeleteI have to say, it is a thing of beauty! Wonderfully light, very nicely manufactured and pretty to behold. Thank you for the recommendation and encouragement to purchase this tool, my life is complete...
