Have you ever had one of those 15mm socket clacker things that Park and var make? They make axle nuts a pleasure. More useful to folk working where shit bikes that use nutted axle freewheel wheels and your building dozens of the bastards every day.
BrickMan-
Yeah they're pretty good.
Remember for me it's all 15mm nuts, apart from those american classics that take the allen keys.
Loads of folk bring me their bike and a ratchet 15mm and ask me to sort their chain tension/check the torque on their nuts (ooh matron!) and that's the only time I use the ratchet spanners and like I say, always wrong way around.

I guess I should think about the thread I'm posting in.
I can see that they'd be more use to a motorcycle mech than they would to me, a bicycle mech. For u doing wheel nuts,
youI really don't need a ratchet spanner.
