Looking for a tool... - London Fixed-gear and Single-speed

deadly fanny pack · 17th August 2008

Im after a spanner with fixed cup one side and lockring the other.

I know they exist, ive seen pictures.

But where can I get this particular combo?

what size fixed cup, is this for a bottom bracket fixed cup tool? if so, pretty sure park sell them.

im after a spanner which does both lockrings, and fixed cups.

I know ive seen them before but cant find any.

i'm looking for exactly the same thing but can only find the Park one with fixed cup one side, pin spanner the other. Since i've had a nightmare getting this off i hit the blowtorch last night managing to set the bottom bracket dust sleeve on fire. I am a fool and it still didn't help me get it off with a massive spanner. Anyone know where i can find dust sleeves, google has not been my friend.

You want a pin spanner lock ring combo tool?

I have a Hozan C-205 Lockring wrench.

And a HCW-4 pin spanner/fixed cup wrench combo tool.

yes my man, those are indeed the ones!

either the 2nd from top, or the one on the bottom.

I have neither a fixed cup spanner, or a 'real' lockring tool in my box. And I need them both.

Best to get both combined, save £15 or so, minimize clutter. Plus I have abundance of every other tool (pin spanner, headset spanners etc)

I am actually selling that set and I must say they are really nice to work with and high quality.

robin · 22nd September 2008

wheres yer tool?

velcro · 23rd September 2008

i ended up just buying the tacx one in the end....if only i had some patience.

Skully · 23rd September 2008

sorry to be a dumbass, what size cup holes on the BB is that pin spanner? I don't know what the standard sizes are actually, are there loads? I have a couple of old-ish Camapgnolo BBs I'd like to be able to strip myself. Wierd how when you go to a bike shop they never have any tools... protecting their business.

Apart from Brixton Cycles, had a BB (that required a pin spanner) in an old frame and realised that I couldn't shift it and they popped it out in seconds not sure if they have the tool for sale though.
