Bicycle manufacturers offer a wide range of differing spoke sizing specs. Some like Park Tools use inches (0.127" and greater), some use gauge size like G15 and G14 and others use two different millimeter measurements (1.80mm and/or 3.23mm). I bought this tool because I wasnt sure what size spoke I had on my mountain bike and this tool covered most of the spoke sizes out there. I guess I could have taken my bike to a bike shop.
Some bike component manufacturers now make 4-sided spoke wrenches. These are far superior than the Park Tool SW-7 3-sided spoke wrench I bought because of their superior gripping ability. Apparently, spokes are easily stripped and damaged. Park Tools offers 4-sided spoke wrenches as well as Delta Spokey (DT Swiss) and other manufacturers. On: 2008-07-28
I received the item recently and have not used it yet but the quality seems to be superb.
