I have been looking for something like this for some time now. http://www.ktmcyclehutt.com/ktmstore/hardparts/tools/951045_tireironset.jpg These are for the KTM's would/could you add this to your line up for Huskies. Red anodized? http://www.cafehusky.com/forums/images/smilies/cheers.gif Happy New Beers to all.
Not a bad idea, thanks. We could incorporate both front and rear bolt sizes and the spoon. Might have to do that. thanks.
Well if I can dream for a moment... Light weight tools in general. What is needed if there is a flat on a bike? 12 or 13 mm hex wrench for rimlocks - some I've seen ratchet, and some can be flipped over, 12 on one side 13 on the other. Lighter weight Husky axle wrench Lighter weight crescent wrench Lighter tools in general I keep meaning to make contact with some people in my past regarding these types of things - sailboats that race need things as light as possible. I should give Bill a call (up near you).
Baja guys are big on lightweight tools. I have a 27mm aluminum spanner with a spoon, but nobody makes a 15mm for the front. Maybe get in touch with 1Xinternational.com or precisions concepts or Motion Pro or whoever is making those spoons and have them make you a 15mm unit, then add in the existing 27mm for a set. They are aluminum and very light. but ive never had an issue with one, and ive done dozens of flats with them. Honda Racing made a cool 'all in one' that had a notch carved out for the spoke nipple, and both 10 and 12mm extensions protruding off of the corners, as well as a 24mm and spoon-sort of like a gunsite.... Wish i still had one. Just goin with the theme.
Have you put anymore thought into this Kelly? I already have motion pro's 27mm for the rear and its a nice bit of gear. Would love to have a 15mm for the front.
Motion Pro makes a 27mm and 24mm snap-in 3/8" socket drive adaptor. Turns my spoon/axle wrench into a long handle socket wrench with a 15mm socket for my front axle nut. I also carry a 3/8" drive to 1/4" drive to fit my other sockets I carry, some of which are under the seat in the little half moon shaped zippered Motion Pro toolkit. Clever little toolset in there.
whats up with the 15mm size? can they be made a size thats common? I filed mine down to 14mm as I carry a wrench that size.
