Why does everybody advise cone wrenches. Sure I have a full set, but from the 1980's when hubs were all loose bearing type. I bet most home mechanics of modern bikes NEVER need a cone wrench, considering all the cartridge bearing hubs out there these days. Certainly not as their number one purchase. No sense buying all the sizes when you don't know what you are going to need, if any at all.
