A flat spanner (also called open ended spanner) has a U shaped end with opposing flat sides.
A combination spanner has a ring at one end and an open end at the other (both of same size).

Spot-on, you got it.madrapper wrote:Is it still a ring spanner if its got a socket like thing on the end of it? I think they are like this so u don't damage the dropout which is recessed on most track bikes I've seen.
Cheers,
