Cytech Fastest Wrench
Back by popular demand, the Cytech Fastest Wrench competition, run by the ACT, is returning to The London Bike Show in 2015.

Are you up to the challenge?
The Fastest Wrench requires competitors to remove an inner tube from the wheel, replace and inflate and re-assemble the brakes. Record the overall fastest time and you will be crowned The Fastest Wrench! The current record, from 2008, is set at an impressive 44.62 seconds - will you be the one to beat it this year?
The winners will not only have the satisfaction of knowing they've fought off the competition to claim the title of the Fastest Wrench, but will also receive amazing prizes.
The Fastest Wrench will be running throughout all 4 days of the show. Why not come along and put your skills to the test - it's free to enter!
