Mavic Kysium spoke key

Rodders30

I bought some spoke keys but struggling to find one that fits.

From my googling I thought the park tool SW-13 would fit, but it doesn't

Which one does?! :?:

Not the SW-13, might be the 12, but I wouldn't bet on it... I got a plastic Mavic for that

Depends on the exact model of your wheels, what year they are, the size of your nipples (ooer matron etc), and possibly the which phase of the lunar cycle your maternal great-grandmother was born in, as far as I can tell.

I have 2016 Ksyrium Elites (came on the bike hence no Mavic tool) and I'm having the same issue trying to work out what tool I need to get in order to correct a slight waver my rear wheel's developed. I think the proper tool's the SW12, which is meant to fit 6.4mm 7-spline nips. Mine seem to measure a little over that at the widest point so it's probably the right tool. Probably.

MIght just resort to a pipe wrench.

I think from memory I measured 5.4mm across the splines. So I bought the sw13. But it's way too small.

The guy who originally bought them is too busy to look for the key that came with it.

Guess I could take to the LBS and see if they have a tool, then buy one.

Or use mole grips, lol. Blooming wheels.

I have a spare that came with some wheels, PM your address and I can post one to you if you want.
Coming from Ireland so 3-5 days. Same as the one I have linked.
