Review on ๐Ÿ”ง Efficient Park Tool CCP-22 Crank Puller: Extract Cranks with Ease by James Holker

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Handle too small - no leverage

I usually like parking tools but this one missed the mark. I think I liked the idea of a built-in pen in theory. But in practice, as some others have pointed out, the handle is just too small for the leverage/torque required for the job. The thin shape is very painful for the hands. The tool made the work extremely difficult because at some point it would get stuck and just wouldn't move anymore. Like the worst pickle jar experience of my life. Incredibly annoying. I had to assemble something with extra tools and it was still difficult. The curse is involved. I regret the purchase and it would be better to get a version without an integrated handle where you just use a separate key. (Especially since you still have to use a wrench to screw the tool all the way down before lowering the pen. So if you already need a wrench, the built-in handle isn't really useful. It's just a poor design ..)

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
