I've had the same Allen Wrench set for 30 years and it breaks my heart, but this Specialized Mechanics Wrench set is taking its place. Why? The addition of a T25 and T30 Torx tool. They are not just for disc rotors anymore. There are a growing number of components (like stems and brakes) that use the star nuts. The tool goes for $30 and it will last another 30 years or until somebody invents a new type of fastener. Way better than a purple tie with pink ducks. They can be found at any Specialized bike shop. -Jimmy Mac
