Advice on BB tools

looking for some help on a few tools; im replacing the BB and cranks from a miche to a suginio BB and sugino cranks and am not completely sure which hook spanner to go for - Roberto helped fit my BB initially but id rather have my own tools -

im on chainreaction and the BB park tool looks slightly small and the variety of differnt tools is slightly overwhelming. Anyone care to guide me which tools will be sufficient?

Read this thread, nice pictures and everything.

(They use Sugino 75 crank arms and a Hatta R9400 BB - but the Sugino 75 and Hatta BBs are identical - except that the hatta is a bit better made and has polished races - but otherwise identical)

haha! ive read that but i cant figure out the tools (as in sizes etc) as it seems you can get different sized hook spanners, ?

I know pin spanners come in different sizes so, thats were confusion kicks in

For your Sugino BB cups go for the green park tool pin spanner (SPA-1)

I've got a Park HCW-4 combination pin Spanner/36mm cone wrench. Fits my Hatta BB. The S75 is identical.

I use the Park Tool BBT 5.

CONdor sell that for use with the Miche BB. They don't/didn't supply the Miche one.

just remember there are different types of campag bb tools the one for record/chorus (and miche) which is internal splines and the one for the cheaper bb's which has external notches.
