Park Tool HCW-15 Headset Wrench Tool 32 mm/36 mm

It's a Park Tools product, so a fantastic fit. But it's a simple pressing or laser cut, and the edges are not dressed to remove the roughness. It's strong but not well finished and not comfortable to use. It would be better if Park Tools applied their blue plastic coating to the core of the wrench.

Bought as a gift, needed a thin spanner in this size and Park tool didn't disappoint. Fitted exactly how it was intended and no twisting or bending like the cheap models.

Maybe my bottom bracket wasn't exactly 36mm (although my other Park Tool 36mm seemed to fit). But I had to hammer this 'laser precision' spanner into place.It is never going to be long enough for a bottom bracket - I put two bolts in to use for leverage with a longer metal pole (there was one already drilled for hanging the spanner).Most bottom brackets are complete units and use a special tool now - so it is only on bikes of a certain 'vintage' that it is a problem.

I was recently rebuilding my 30 year old gazelle Mondial bike. The nuts on the threaded headset are very thin despite being 32mm in diameter. My 32mm combination spanner was too thick so adjustment was impossible. I needed a thinner good quality spanner, which this is. I own quite a few Park Tools already so knew it would be of a decent quality. A great spanner at a decent price which will last for many years. My attitude to tools are, buy the best you can afford and they’ll never let you down.

Very pleasing top quality spanner, solid and precise, very easy to use. Most of my bike tools are pretty flimsy, this is over the top for the amount of use it will get but can't imagine it being improved. Will last a lifetime.

Not the cheapest but definitely worth it. You get what you pay for. Stronger than cheaper ones i have used and discarded.

Great product..swift postage

Best brand ever..You pay a few more money but you got a good tool.
