Mickly Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Speedtriple is 46mm - Single sided swinging arm.Even the mobile tyre guy was happy to borrow my socket when I needed a replacement tyre and had no way of getting a loose wheel to a shop.He’d not long set up and still needed to build his kit up for the more obscure sizes.He did the balance for free in exchange for the use of the socket.Not had to use it very often though.
