 Worked for me. August 10, 2010
Someone with an opinion
Well, it was cheap and did the job. I don't know how many people are going to have a 26mm socket lying around to torque the lockring, but you'll need one if you want to do that. The SR-1 Chain Whip tool has a 26mm box end that will work if you feel like rolling the dice. I'd like to have the option of using a 3/8-in. or 1/2-in. square drive so I can directly attach this to a ratchet/torque wrench.
 It's OK, but the IceToolz Cassette Lockring Tool with PIN is better! July 14, 2010

I have quit using chainwhips as much as possible. These things can take your eye out if they break on a stuborn hyperglide style cassette lockring. I like the Stein Hyperhandle used in conjunction with the Lifu Cassette Lockring Tool (Icetoolz is a brand used for Lifu made tools for bicycles) - it makes easy work of cassettes with out endangering oneself with by using a medieval instrument of death - the chainwhip. The Lifu has longer splines and the center spike doesn't come loose like the Park version.
If you work in a shop, you owe it to yourself to finding a better tool. For all of the wheel work that I do (replacing broken spokes) - having a higher quality tool makes great sense.
