Park Tool SW-0

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.

Great wrench, I love Park Tools quality!

Great wrench. Good fit. I already had one other size and this one was just as good.

works well and appears well made

Like all Park Tools, this just works. Quality is great. There is not much more that you can say about this.

I wish that Park made an SW-41 4-sided version of this like they do for the Black and Red sizes. Apparently there isn't as much call for it. I've found that the 0.13 nipples are MORE prone to stripping because they are usually on the cheapest off-brand wheels and need a 4-sided wrench all the more. Apparently Park doesn't think so. No SW-41 is made so we have to make do with the SW-1 instead. I don't even own an SW-0 or SW-2, just the SW-40 and the SW42. I work on a lot of older abused bikes and it's nice knowing I don't have to worry about stripping nipples as much as long as the spoke isn't so chewed up that I can get it on. If it is that chewed up I will fall back to my SW-7 which has the same sizes as the SW-0, SW-1, and SW-2 but I bought this SW-1 because it's a pain sometimes having to look for the right size of the three on the SW-7.

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.

Had to make some adjustments to my bike spokes and tried using some of my other wrenches. They either did not fit the spoke properly or were clumsy to use. This wrench sits parallel to your spoke and fits the the spoke nipple perfectly. These make it easy to adjust spokes. Just make sure you measure and get the right size for specific spokes as the come in several sizes. Park Tools are the gold standard for bike tools in my opinion. Some tools you can save money on, but spoke wrenches are one area where I would not skimp. This is a good value for what you are getting.

Parktool is always quality.

Il tiraraggi è molto ben fatto, ma le misure non corrispondono alla descrizione in quanto, come riportato sull'etichetta, dovrebbe essere da mm.4,00 per i nippli da mm.3,96. Al momento della prova ho constatato aveva troppo gioco e alla misurazione con calibro centesimale è risultato avere una misura di mm.4,13, perciò inservibile. Deluso, ho fatto il reso.

Sono contento di aver fatto questo aquisto....

Muss man nicht viel zu sagen - Parktool enttäuscht einfach nie! Viel besser als die beim Zentrierständer mitgelieferten Multitools.

I purchased several spoke wrenches from Amazon because the 1st spoke wrench I ordered from a local online platform was unusable (it was way off the 3.35mm nipple size I needed it for ). The Park Tool SW-1 was closest to the 3.35mm nipple size.
