Another alternative is the Sears Craftsman offset ratcheting wrench, you need the 9x10mm size. The offset allows you reach that pesky front bolt, and the ratchet is fine enough that you can turn the bolt in the face of even the most constricting saddle skirt impeding your access. And being a ratchet you don't have to keep lifting and replacing the wrench. Wonderful on brake nuts and fender bolts too (in the 8mm size). Usually won't reach derailleur bolts, but hey, nothing's perfect. I love mine.

or Sears catalog item #00943367000. $6.99 before shipping.

A better solution is to flag down the next Snap On truck you find and get a 12 point 10mm offset combo wrench. Much better than the Campy. Phil Brown Haven't used the Campy in many, many years in San Rafael, Calif. _______________________________________________
