Spoke wrench size (and torque?)

bobrx3 · 03-14-2016, 12:50 AM

Anyone know the spoke wrench size for the stock RX3? I measure the adjusters to be about 5.6mm across, but 5.5, 5.6, 5.7 and 5.8 wrenches are available and I don't know if a 5.6 would be too tight. I don't know what the wrench clearance should be. Anyone know for sure before I buy one? 5.6 isn't very common, but 5.7 is even less common!

Also, is there a torque spec anywhere? I don't have a torque wrench for spokes, but it would still be interesting to know if there is an official setting. I'm guessing it would be in the 40-50 in-lbs range.
