Oh, nice to know thanks ! I find them pricey though, I'll try a ruler tomorrow and see if I need the dedicated tool or not.

I actually don't know how old the stuff on my bike is, but I have a fancy sticker that says "tested for safety by the police department..... in 2013", so yeah, I'm a bit nervous about the consumables.

The simple checker tools cost almost nothing and I'd recommend getting one. But if you have to use a ruler here's how to do it properly
