You might consider putting all those little wrenches back in the set and instead just carrying one adjustable wrench. Fewer pieces to carry, and feel and precision might actually improve because you can clamp the wrench directly to a nut with no wiggle.
A side benefit of an adjustable wrench is that you can fix lots of other things as well - not even necessarily on bikes.
