Interesting tool at a nice price. Trying to decide if I need one.

It's pretty, but I don't do race mechanics. So I'll pass. My on the road mechanic work is limited to multi day ride support. Not a race situation.

That is a neat tool. I hope they make a nice version of a SS freewheel tool in the future.

As an aside, the Pedro's Vise Whip is awesome if you are trying to deck out your wheel tools.

Pedro's vise whip is pretty neat. You do not have to think about which way to put it & you can hold the wheel by it while you take the lock-ring off.

Neat tool. You probably do not need it but you want it. You will be "the man" when you tighten a friends lock ring without removing his quick release.

Cool for taking it off but I use a torque wrench when reinstalling so it's a no-go for me.
