Review on Wera 05004004001 Zyklop Ratchet Switch by Jonathan Brendemuehl

Revainrating 2 out of 5

The directional lever is cheap and breaks

Good ratchet, good tooth count. Well designed to touch. But the directional shifter is a bloodless cast and broke off after minimal use, and it broke right off the switch so it's now impossible to change ratchet direction. Not used extensively either, saw maybe 2 hours of occasional light use before it broke, the rest of the ratchet is basically new. A 3/8" ratchet can have a thicker derailleur body, although I only have a 1/4" ratchet which is too thin.

Pros
  • Tools and Housewares
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
