Does anyone know what key is required for truing the DT Swiss ARC 1400 Dicut DB 62 wheels?

As these wheels have internal nipples, a driver for sure is required, but on DT states on their site "DT Pro Lock hidden aluminum" for nipple specification.

As I will need to order the key online and it will take some time for it to arrive (and also will need to replace the tubeless tape), I would like to have all the tools on hand, before I start the procedure.

5.5mm nut driver unless they are Squorx which it would probably say.

Look at the nippels that are included with a spare spoke kit for the ARC 1400 62mm wheels

Black handled nipple driver -https://www.amazon.com/DT-Swiss-T-Handl ... B00K3PCO6U
Plastic spoke holder - https://www.amazon.com/Park-Tool-Bladed ... hdGY&psc=1 (pliers will work, but you can damage the black finish)

If you need a new spoke, buy a straightpull and then pound it flat with a hammer/vise.
