Aldo:

I don't think that it does. There is a VAR double-ended wrench out there that has opposing Brooks and Ideale ends. Bill Laine at Wallingford has them:

excerpted text from the page:

"The Var 300 Spanner adjusts Brooks saddles with one end and Ideale saddles with the other. Stamped "Ideale-Brooks" on one side and "Var 300 made in France" on the other side. Not too many of you will need this one but if you do, its a cool wrench. $13.00"
