Cone Wrench sizes for Shimano RS80 C24??

ScreaminWargasm

Hi All,

I recently purchased a new set of RS80's and the cones feel a tad tight from the factory. Can anyone advise me of what size wrenches I'll need for both front and rear wheels?
Also, will I need to get two wrenches of the same size?

Many Thanks

The hubs are Ultegra 6700 if anyone has them.

Try shimano tech docs or googling rs80 diagram. Should get you an exploded view of the hub with a parts list.

Hi mate, I have had a look there already and it does show the parts list but unfortunately, no mention of the sizes of cones and locking nuts.

I have a set of cone spanners you can have a borrow of to adjust your hubs, I believe they will fit into a set of standard sizes either 13 ,14, 15, 16. The spanners I have cover these sizes.

Thanks very much for the offer mate, very decent of you however, I've ordered a set prior to seeing your message.

Cheers though,

Mick

Not RS80's, but my Shimano WH-R550 wheels are 17mm

I found out when none of my 13-14-15-16 cone spanner set fitted...

Thanks for the info mate. If my wrench set ever arrives from Evans, I shall post the required sizes for anyone needing them later down the line.

For anyone needing this info, the front hub requires TWO 17mm wrenches (1 for cone and 1 for lock nut)
The rear hub requires TWO 15mm wrenches (1 for cone and 1 for lock nut)
