Review on πŸ”§ Lisle 21700 Wrinkle Band Ring Compressor for Smooth Compressions by James Pope

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Good idea but seems fragile

This is an example of how you get what you paid for. Mine arrived with no rivets. So I had to fix it to be able to use it. As I will only be using it on my single cylinder bike it should only work once and I'm going insane. If you're looking for a good piston ring compressor for your garage, you might want to look at others. I see people using inexpensive ring compressors to rebuild an engine and wonder why when there are compressors with tapered rings to match their bore. Pop. listed. Repetition. This ring compressor is an improvement over using your fingers and if you use it carefully it should get the job done.

Pros
  • Easy to install
Cons
  • Big and bulky
