15" adjustable wrench :y

Fark me, what are you changing the brakes on? 15" fittings! ;) ;D
Tis what I use for such situations... well defined jaws and a bit of leverage :y

Helfrods do/did a nice little set of spanners for such fittings, which will take a tap or two from sammy, either to install them or to turn them :y

Aye, that current generation of all sub 200pc Hellfrauds sets are missing 9 and 18mm, both used on Omegas. The 170 and 200pc are ratchet spanners, which I'm guessing do not like hammers.  Did I mention I miss my old 150pc sets?  :'(
