Review on Wheels Manufacturing: The Ultimate ๐Ÿ”ง Tool to Press Universal Bottom Brackets by Curtis Domus

Revainrating 2 out of 5

makes work easier when doing the right job

press for the manufacture of wheels with carriages from high-quality materials. However, upon first use and removing the red press handles, I found that one side was not finished properly. It could be the threaded rod itself (there was no visible damage) or the threads in the red handle. The red handle itself was attached to a threaded rod, causing the entire assembly to rotate as a unit. By clamping the rod with soft pliers I was able to remove the handle from the threaded rod. Then I lubricated the threaded rod and pulled and loosened the rod several times until it was loose enough to be used without binding. I'm not sure if this is a sign of quality control or an absolute defect with this product. Once repaired and working properly, I was able to install the new press-fit bottom bracket with no problem.

Pros
  • a handy thing
Cons
  • so far so good
