Anyone know your nipple size?

Getting ready for my R1U 700 to arrive and want to be ready if a spoke or 2 needs tightening. I was able to keep my MTB and Cyclocross rims perfect so I have no hesitation to take care of them. I don't want to buy a multi tool. I prefer one size only. Can anyone answer the question?

Never mind. I'm going to buy the multi tool. Don't think I'll be using it that much.

You should get a couple hundred miles on the bike before doing any spoke adjustment. You have plenty of time to buy spoke wrenches.

It's 13 front 12 back

I will do a "sight and sound" test just as a precaution. And want the ability to fix any problems

It's a good idea... I needed to straighten the wheel and many have reported loose spokes.

The thread title offended me.

I ordered the blue Parks tool spoke wrench and it fits. Its tight but it fits. IIRC, it is .153" opening. Its the biggest one you can find. The spokes on here are much thicker than a non-motorized bike so the nipples are correspondingly bigger.
