Ken,

Also, one of the numerous dinky little pressed steel "spark plug" sockets in the
bike's tool kit also fits into the front axle hex nicely.  Works fine, and saves
having to look around for anything.  Of course, the quality of the tools are one
step up from green cheese, but they are there anyway.
