The easiest is the fiber spoke, but be carefl not to tightenit too much. I always have the long spoke/head cut off/z end in place when I tour because it works really well too. I have also done the grind the outside of the head off so that it looks like a j, but that requires that you fit it ahead. The lockring key and vice is an old trick that works because there are a lot of places with a vice. Now that i know these tricks and have used them all, I lightened my load AND got better and new spokes so i do not break them, the easiest solution of all.
