Was looking at bicycle cassette removal tools and saw this abomination. That’s some sub harbor freight level quality right there.

For a tool I’d only use a few times, I’d live with it if the price was right.

Pretty sure I could have made a better looking part as an apprentice, that’s just some hack level quality.

Proudly made in Glorious People's Republic on 70 year old machinery salvaged from western capitalist fatcats. Contains no more than 50% lead.

Buy the Park tool, at least it will work. I think I’ve had the same park cassette tool for >20 years.
