Hey gang. I’m building up my bike repair tool set, and it looks like I’ll either need to get a set (or several popularly sized) cone wrenches and/or an adjustable wrench with a thin profile.

I figure an adjustable wrench could help service anything from axles/hubs to headsets, which cone wrenches are limited to the size(s) you’ve got.

Any advantage/disadvantage of one over the other that I might not realize?

    I’m going to do the best of both works and pick up some Park Tool cone wrenches of the sizes I absolutely need for the bikes I currently have. And I’ll also pick up one of the thinner adjustable wrenches (in a reputable brand) for some light tasks.

    I don’t think you can have too many tools, anyway, provided they are good quality 😂
