approved 32mm (or 30mm?) headset spanner then? And spanners for hub cones/nuts, and pedals?

Cyclo do all the sizes, they're cheap and plenty good enough for home use. It's not clear what Park and VAR bring to the table apart from double the price.

Cheapest one I can find is this which isn't very cheap, and only a pound or two cheaper than Park.

Oh well, it'll do the job, and the pin thing will be useful for those stupid BBs that need one. Can manage on pedals and hubs for now.

Edit: Forum breaks my link. Here it is https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Cyclo-32mm-Head-Bottom-Bracket-Adjustable-Cup-Spanner-/122937397796

For future reference for anyone else who wants one

Still broken. Try this one

Broken links aside, you will find that not all headsets are the same size. If you want a pin spanner then I actually would recommend the park one purely because the springiness of it keeps it in place slightly/allows for slightly different sizes.
