I swap out forks and experiment with different forks all the time and this tool makes removing your crown race a breeze. The quality of construction and materials you get with Park Tool are the reason I'm brand loyal.After years of using a screw driver to drift and pry off crown races, using a professional tool for the task is a dream. More importantly, it removed the race without marring the crown of a brand new take-off fork I plan to sell and in that regard, probably paid for itself.This is an EXPENSIVE TOOL. And it does the job well, but....I only got through about half a dozen crown races before the blades busted. at $16+ a blade - $50 to replace all 3, that is insane cost to only do 6 crown races. Maybe I got unlucky on a really hard crown race, but as of right now I am super disappointed. I mean it does a much better job that cheaper crown race tools, but the cost is just insane. I would hope the cost to replace the blades would be less otherwise this cost prohibitive than most. I hope the next time the blades last longer...Also I had a 47cm older steel bike that the steerer tube was too short to work with this tool which was very disappointing as well. Overall I expected MUCH more for such an expensive toolProduct works like a charm! Made the bearing removal quick and painless and much safer, no worrying about accidentally harming the steering column. If you do a lot of work on many bikes, this product is worth it if your task require the steering stem.Great product at an excellent price. Also, super fast shipping - got it the next day.Made my life easier and saved my crown races and steerer tube from getting gouged on removal.Expensive but makes the job easyexcellent product!! at great ptice!!Also ich habe mir den Abzieher geholt, da ich Ihn im Einsatz auf Youtube bei einer CBF1000 SC58 gesehen habe.Am Anfang war ich ein bisschen skeptisch, da der Abzieher ja auch nicht wirklich gerade günstig ist.Im nachhinein würde ich nie wieder ohne das Werkzeug am Lenkkopflager arbeiten wollen.Die Qualität ist super und das abziehen geht echt wie von allein.Bin absolut begeistert und würde das Werkzeug immer weiterempfehlen
