    Or you can call it the "Y". I have an 8-9-10 box end Y wrench that gave me the same loving feeling in the 70s and 80s.
    Oil is good, grease is better.

    Great tips from everybody

    We had a workstand, but I threw it out in the last move as the holding bolt was broken and it somehow managed to be both heavy and unwieldy, and wobbly and unbalanced all at the same time. Our workstand at the moment consists of a rope thrown over a rafter to hoist up the rear wheel... so I will be looking for a good workstand too before summer. I have one at work, and in winter that's where I do my tinkering anyway cos I can stand indoors in relative comfort.
    Winter riding is much less about badassery and much more about bundle-uppery. - malkin
