Review on ๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Acekit Bike Headset Cup and Bottom Bracket Press Installation Tool: Effortlessly Install BB30 and BB90 with Precision by Matt Davis

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Surprisingly good

So you need to mount the headset without damaging the frame. At one end of the price spectrum you have the top-of-the-line Park Tool headset press for around $170, at the other end a rubber mallet for $5 (not recommended). This press actually does a pretty good job for about $30 with the following caveats: 1) You take your time and SLOWLY apply force to make sure the press stays properly centered. 2). Make sure you have a good quality long box wrench (24mm I think) to tighten the bottom bolt while turning the pressure grips. 3) Don't forget to put some lube on the headset cups.

Pros
  • weight
Cons
  • boring packaging
