dr.oblong: what about changing from 15mm nuts to allen nuts? That's got to be a better solution than buying new tools.
I usually leave my 15mm spanner in my bag (other people might need it and it opens beers) but the Soma's Phils require allen key.
I'm not that fussed because the Tule is light and has its spot in my bag.
But, for you where speed fixes are obviously required, changing all your nuts to allen has got to be better? Pain in the butt initially perhaps but worthwhile?
How often do you need to adjust the DA caliper? Can it also be swapped out so only the allen keys are needed? Then almost any multi will see you through.
