Quick question about the meter. The description of the tool says it's good for all kinds of spokes. Will it actually work the same on my girlfriends new skinny spokes as it will on my thicker bladed spokes?
Most likely. The chart includes measurements for round spokes down to 1.4mm and lots of steel/aluminum bladed numbers.

You might take a look at the Conversion Chart to guarantee your favorite bladed spokes are in the chart.
