Not the most common spanner but I know a few bikes have 18mm axle nuts . . 85p each
I had to buy these size for some bottom arms on a VAG, so any owners worth buying as they arent in my regular spanner sets.

An 18mm spanner is practically identical to a 3/8" Whitworth. (technically it's 0.03mm smaller than the Whitworth but this usually means it's just a really good fit).
So. It fits quite a few bolts on old Brit bikes. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink. That's when things happen. That's when you find out everything you want to know.”
