slight buckle

Eh? '14g asia'? What's that when it's at home? Sorry, I'm baffled by these numbers. I've never heard of a spoke key that 'doesn't fit'. I suggest you take it back to Halfords, along with your bike, and ask to swap it for one that fits. They should be able to sort you out.

I don't know what asia has to do with it either but thats what it says on the packet.

The sizes are 3.23mm, 3.30mm and 3.45mm and i need a 3.95mm i think.

Halfords don't do anything bigger.

Cheers

Weird. Do you have an odd wheel? I use one of these - doesn't say anything about mm, just has size 0, 1 & 2, one of which fits every spoke I've ever needed to work on.

i had i look at that one, it's the exact same size as the bikehut.

The rims are mavic x517 and there is a sticker on them saying the are hand built.
