Now that I'm using tubeless tires, I've found it almost impossible to remove from one from the wheel rim to insert a tube if emergency puncture on the road. So I've got one of those tubeless tire plug tools, but just in case I need to add sealant, I bought this valve core remover, to add sealant through the valve. I haven't had to use it yet, and I plan to try it out at home, just to be sure I will be familiar with the process if I get stuck on the road. I don't expect there will be any issue with removing and reinserting the valve, though.
Work like a champ and Park Tools is always quality. Western Bike Works had a great price and with reward points was even better. WBW shopping has always been fast, pleasant and great prices-glad I found them!
I've always dreamed of having a full Park Tool set for all my bikes. I saw these wrenches on sale and thought I'd upgrade my toolbox. I was disappointed as I thought they would come crisp, like a snap-on set. They were not. The Paul's inside the ratchets had play and felt like they would skip. The action was not smooth. I've used them and everything seems to work. I'm cautious and slightly optimistic about longevity. Time will tell. The nice thing is if they do break Park Tool will replace them at no charge.
As the name of the tool indicates, I used it to scrub the chains of our two bikes. I used to pull the chains, open a link, soak them in solvent, brush the chains by hand, before putting them in warn oil bath for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes in the oil bath, I'd fight with the well oiled, slippery chains to put them back together; and then put them back on bikes. With the Park CM-25, I left the chains on the bikes, ran them through the scrubber while simultaneously using a spray cleaner on the cogs and chain rings to ensure the entire drive system was clean. Took about 10 to 15 minutes per bike the first time, and I suspect it will take less time in the future. The chains well cleaned and, with a bit of lubricant, the bikes were ready to roll. Money well spent.
