OK if you like.

I can conclusively state that when using my usual red Park Tools key on a new DT Swiss nipple for 2mm spokes that the fit is "a bit loose". When conducting the same experiment with the Mickey Mouse key the fit is "a bit loose". When I try the black tacx key it is "not loose".

Any help?

I'll take them to the workshop and measure them.

I'm afraid I don't know, how embarrassing! I'll take it to the workshop later and measure it (and the others) and will let you know.

Cheers!

Fair enough, there must be some comprehensive information about this somewhere!?!

Yep I know what you mean. I've spent hours trying to figure this out and now officially give up. Bah!
I'll PM with PayPal details.

Isn't that one of the one's with the "death fork"? :

Pretty sure it was Viscount that had the death fork no?

12g, 13g, 14g, 15g (3.2mm, 3.3mm, 3.4mm, 3.9mm)

Shit this must be wrong because the Tacx Black Nipple Key is 15g and is .127" (3.22mm) so that's probly the one you want Hugo7. That even makes sense as it's the same size as the Pedros one that's already sold so it's a popular size. Woo hoo! It's all coming together!

I'll be honest with you I don't really get the different sizing options either. Some are numbered 0-3, some 10-15, some in mm, some just colour coded. I've spent ages trying to correlate them all and have just about given up.

Got this:

12g, 13g, 14g, 15g (3.2mm, 3.3mm, 3.4mm, 3.9mm)

and this:

• Japanese size spoke nipples (3.4 mm)
  
• US and Euro size spoke nipples (3.25 mm)
  
  

which are most common. It seems weird therefore that you are mostly using 3.9mm.

That's probably not that helpful right?

^ + ^^ cheers for the feedback, I didn't think I was asking over the odds for it, just need to find someone who appreciates it.

Really? The shifters would sell on ebay for £30. Whatever. I'll not sell it on here then, that's fine. Thanks for the feedback.

Expedition tourer anyone?

Everything works as it should. It's really light, ali frame and forks.

There's nothing to stop you converting it back to geared - hanger is there and rear wheel is 9 speed compatible. I probably have the parts to run it 27 speed for a cost...

£190 collected from Brighton

I could be persuaded to deliver to London Victoria for train fare or why not have a day out by the seaside?

Thanks for the feedback y'all, glad you happy with the bags. Hopefully the remainder will sell OK on Ebay

Now sold.

Yep all fair points about the Zunow, wasn't seriously considering buying it tbh, just wondered what others thought of it.

What do folks think of this? Nice details on the frame, nice parts, fugly colour scheme I reckon.
