This tool will get the job done. It is difficult to tell which slot fits your spokes the best. Also they are not marked with sizes, so if you set the tool down, it takes some thought to get the correct slot again. I prefer my concentration to be on the task at hand, not on using my tools correctly. Of course the option is to get dedicated size spoke wrenches. This is costly compared to this unit. No more often than I adjust spokes, it is worth it to me to struggle with a clumsy tool. It could be vastly improved with a simple number system stamped with the logo though.

I think this is a so-so innovation, having all three sizes on one key. I always find myself fumbling for the right one and sometimes I strip nipples as a result. For the same price you can get the three wrench set from Avenir Avenir Pro Spoke Wrench Set and then you can focus of thinking about how much to turn the nipple and whether you are turning it in the right direction instead of whether you are using the right size wrench. That's slightly less portable, but do you really need to be able to bring three spoke wrenches with you? I don't.

I have gone through two of these spoke wrenches over the years. Both times the wrench has broken in half. Mind you I have built many wheels and I know not to torque on the spokes. Each time the wrench has just cracked in two in my hand. I would recommend getting a single nipple sized wrench instead. Park usually makes decent products but have missed on this.
