Nice idea and they look to be good quality. But it would mean adding the chunky socket not to mention a 1/2"ratchet to my bag, which is a fair bit more hefty and cumbersome than the ubiquitous 15mm ring spanner. (I know some folks here go for the fix-the-tube-with-wheel-in-situ method but I'm not one of them and anyway if you get a big hole or gash your fecked and you need wheel off and new tube in.) Good I s'pose if you lock up your Zipps round the back of the pub regularly.
