16mm Hex /Allen key

[funnyman]

Hi, 

So I do all my own work on my bikes, and have most tools I need- but need a 16mm hex bit or socket key bit to remove a raceface cap in order to remove my BB.

Anyone have any idea where I can find one? I have tried most motor spares, DIY and bike shops around S/West.

I know I could make a tool with a 16mm nut etc- just trying to sort as would like to be able to set torque to correct setting too.

 

Many thanks

Not sure where you based? But I've found "odd sized" tools at Adendorf often and if they fails I go to "The Toolshop" in Randburg. The latter is Beta, JBS, Nippex type brands so pricey but lovely.

Agree with Adendorfs and the Tool shop

 

Don't know if their around in CT

Fowkes Brothers will have

 

They may supply someone in SW

Apple Tool and Gas

If they dont have they can order.

Alternatively Ardendorfs in town is best second bet.

 

There is a different store in town that will either have or be able to get it, I cant remember the name tho they across from the Wurth store down road from Ardendorf.

Teng tools in Parow, on Voertrekker road opposite the pick and pay. They have everything. Fawkes brothers also in pardon island as well

Midas sell individual ones.

[Amberdrake]

Helderberg Midas is slightly useless when it comes to tools individually, Same with the Autozone.

I have found what I need there before but its always slightly hit and miss.

The other place you can look is South End Stores Between Strand/Gordens Bay, They have a bit of everything.
