Motion Pro 08-0520 5mm Ergo Spoke Wrench

I’m very fussy about my tools—for instance, I like Snapon and Mac but I’ll grab my Mac knucklersaver II every time over the Snapon because it has a nice flat edge to push against for your fingers. So yes I’m like the princess and the pea when it comes to tools. Because let’s face it, the Snapon wrenches are great.Now I don’t know where this wrench was made—I was afraid to look in case it what offshore. All my tools are USA Germany (Bosche) or Makita or Austrian (weird KTM motorcycle tools) and yes they are expensive but some of them I’ve have 40 years and they are still as good as the day I bought them. “Only very once” was the saying… because if you bought cheap tools you’d cry every time you touched them… as opposed to the day you buy them.Now this is hardly an “expensive” wrench but it’s my go-to for my KTM bikes with 7mm spokes. The twist in the wrench makes for very comfortable near-effortless fastener tightening (or in this case, spoke tightening).If you aren’t happy with your spoke wrench stop thinking about it and just buy it. You’ll be glad you did.

I was looking for a spoke wrench that fit my ktm’s well and wasn’t a pain to use. This is it!

This is a true-ly loveable tool that makes me want to true every wheel in the garage- and that could take a while.....Seriously, the feel of it, the different angles to each end, and the brilliant semi-open end, are awesome.I'd broken a cheaper, flat/thick design wrench off amazon. They're commonly available- ones with the stepped jaws- with not even that much leverage. Crap.But this one....this one!!...from Motion Pro is a liberator. Live free...live true.

I wish the spoke torque wrenches included a 7mm head. I have one, out of 5 wheels which requires a 7mm wrench. This fits great and sure beats wrecking spoke nipples with the wrong tools. If you need 7mm, can't go wrong.Item is exactly as pictured.

An excellent design. Especially considering how it "wraps around" the spoke (unlike a simple open end wrench would. My only complaint is that it's very heavy for it's size. For a garage wrench it's really a nice product, but I'm really wondering If I want to add this to my tool roll I carry on the bike.

Not a precision tool. Very sloppy fit and guaranteed to mar up the spoke nuts. The end with the line wrench style box end should be the end at a 15 degree angle but it isn't and the end that is at an angle is an even sloppier fitting open end. The 15 degree angle lets you simply flip the wrench to get a different approach instead of having to reach around the wheel to approach from the opposite side. I guess Chinese engineers don't understand why our combination wrenches evolved to include the angled head. It's a thing called tool access. Also, head onspoke wrenches should be thicker than a standard 6mm open end wrench to engage the full depth of the spoke nut to make up for not being able to get a grip on all 4 sides like with a box end and to reduce the chance of rounding off the unhardened spoke end. But these wrenches are only slightly thicker than a standard combination wrench.

6.8mm wrench fit perfectly on my KTM. The wrench has a quality feel to it and feels comfortable in your hand while using. The open end is angled to help get to those spoke nipples that are positioned in between a good leverage spot. The wrench has a nice fit on the nipple itself which should help prevent rounding off. Highly recommended.

Works well and feels so beautiful in your hand. This wrench will be in my tool box forever. Thank you

Fits and works well
