Hi guys, I have had some wheel spanners made for the DDx. I have 8mm aluminum and 4.5mm stainless steel. The aluminum spanners still have to go for hard anodizing. They will fit under the rear seat. The aluminum spanner fits snug without rattling/moving around where as the stainless steel spanner will need to be wrapped in a cloth or something. The stainless spanner is slightly heavier than the aluminum one.
Stainless spanner R600ea
Aluminum R800ea (should be ready in 2 weeks)

Is that going to be enough leverage to loosen/tighten that 180nm?

I made them to fit very snug on the nut so that it could be kicked loose with your boot or heavy object. The idea is to be able to loosen the wheel in the bush to carry out the repair then kick/tighten as tight as possible till you can get to a workshop to check/tighten to correct torque. There are 13mm square holes to accept 1/2 inch power bar or torque wrench. I will confirm the correct torque to be used with the spanner as the length (+ 150mm) needs to be taken into consideration.

According to my calculations with my torque wrench of 450mm long the correct torque will be 135nm with the +150mm effective length.

Be glad that it's not a 1098.........230mn torque on that one. Fun and games to remove and refit.

My thoughts exactly - I think one will need some extra leverage for sure ... I would not kick that and would be looking for a fencing pole or irrigation pipe. Even with a long breaker bar on a socket one needs to muscle that 180Nm. I hope to never have to remove the rear wheel ... tyre could also be a bastard Thank gawd it is tubeless.

I have tested it a few times, you don't need to kick it but push with your foot/boot. It's not actually that difficult.
