IRO Mark V axel nut wrench size?

I realize this is a stupid question but I don't own a wrench set and the hardware store is a bit away.

What is the wrench size need to take the wheels off? Called IRO this afternoon, but from the voice message it sounds like they're very busy and won't be taking phone calls for a bit.

Thanks for the help,
Eric

Thanks - that's what I thought, but I didn't feel like running out to the store without a double check. As for IRO, apparently they became very popular, very recently - bike build time is now 8 weeks.
