Title: 3 Piece Crank Removal Tool
Post by: monkian on March 03, 2011, 04:13 PM: I bought one of these tools the other day. Bit of a bargain and it's awesome.
Removed Alloy Takagi Tourney Cranks with no drama. It even cut nice new threads on one arm where they were slightly mashed :coolsmiley:
Just thought I'd share the joy: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/IceToolz-Crank-Remover-Tool-Handle-/330537332803
