We've wanted to do a spoke wrench for a long time. The boss man was a bit of a wheel guy when he still worked in shops, don't ask us why it took so long.
Spoke wrenches are a highly personal tools. Most people learn to true and build wheels with the same old tool and some stay with it for life, while others realize there's improvements that make their fingers happier at the end of a day of twisting nipples.
We chose to make our wrench about as big as you can while still fitting in between high spoke count wheels. We also put a rib around the ears to help give your fingers a place to rest and cut down on need to squeeze in addition to twisting. While the pretty bit is machined from a solid block of aluminum we weren't quite happy with the durability of that for the tool interface, so we added a hardened steel insert to handle the real work. These bits will be replaceable if need be, though you don't want to swap them around in between jobs.
The Spoke wrench also nests perfectly with a DT style bladed spoke holder for use with aero spokes.You might be wondering what the SD stands for, well we kind of feel the shape of the new spoke wrench kind of looks like the ears of our beloved Shop Dog, Remi. So the old bird dog gets to add to his legacy and live on forever in the Abbey catalog.
