Product description


Park Tool SBC-1 Bicycle Spoke, Bearing, and Cotter Gauge
This handy shop aid has remained more or less unchanged since we introduced it in the 1960s, and it’s still relevant today for any bike mechanic looking to measure a spoke, ball bearing or crank cotter. To use, just hang the head of the spoke in the oblong hole and read its length on the scale. Features 9 holes for easily determining the size of most common ball bearings and crank cotters. With both metric and fractional length markings, The SBC-1 is also handy as a general-purpose ruler. Anodized aluminum with embossed markings for easy reading and and a lifetime of use.

Luckily, Park Tool offers a full range of spoke wrenches in virtually every size found on a bike. Here’s a small selection of our lineup of wrenches to help you stay true:
