well, i dont know if they are the same, but out of curiosity, i just checked and my bora one's use the park blue SW-3 wrench for the nipples. my bet would be that the ultras are the same. i believe the main difference between the one's and the ultras is the hubs/bearings?

anyway - curious why you feel like you need to order a spoke wrench before you even get the wheels? why not just wait to get them and measure the nips? you shouldnt need to true them right away, for sure?

I have the wheels already.. Like to have my tools on hand.. I think you are right Bora ones and ultras have the same external square nips.. I have a micrometer but I didn't know if theres some sort of wire guge wierd width to them.. Campy afterall.. I will Check the Park Tool thingy.. Thanks again..
