    I use a BBB spoke tool and the 3.3mm size is a good fit. I have had bad experience with Akium steel spokes seizing to the nipples over the years. You really need to loosen and tighten them slightly ever six months to prevent this happening.

    So I'm learning, thanks. I got the tool and it's on the list of things to do which is getting longer, not shorter. Don't need a rear wheel on the turbo!
