Terrible product, avoid at all costs!

May 12, 2021 Bought four of these for the store. Three out of four failed on the first use. Fourth, we had no confidence due to three previous mistakes. Another example of CCC (Cheap Chinese Crap). Avoid, don't buy, stay away. I can't stress this enough. DO NOT BUY

Pros
  • tools and equipment
Cons
  • crumpled

Good price, mediocre design.

Does the job, but its design is a little tricky. As you turn the screw to force the pads apart, there comes a point where the torque exceeds the friction on the pistons and the spacers slip. While I wanted the pistons to be completely apart, I had to settle for "pretty close". I would give it three stars for functionality and five stars for price. So four.

Pros
  • Brake Spacer Tools
Cons
  • Slightly Crumpled

Think outside the box, classic bikers.

Ok for the intended purpose: slightly larger and better than the competition, and a good price. But I got it so I don't have to use an old ratchet to remove and reinstall the carburetor on my classic Honda CB400f. Simply place it between the head and carb block and spread it apart to start the process, then move it to the other end so you don't tip the block too much and potentially damage the flexible hoses between the carb and head. To reinsert them, slide a piece of wood between the frame…

Pros
  • Automotive
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors
