MongooseMan Posted May 10, 2022 Share 4 hours ago, TyronLab said: Swiftly getting back on topic, anyone know where I can find one of these, or have an extra one to sell to me? I've been searching for quite some time and have come up short. TL-PD40, used to disassemble Shimano PD-M520 pedals. The set of pedals I inherited with Tennisball have a bit of axle play that I want to sort out, and need this little oke to do that. I've tried McGuyvering it, but those plastic splines are pretty easy to smush. I ended up 3D printing one. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4252182 Ask on the 3D printing thread if anyone in JHB is willing to do one for you.

Here you can see it next to my other tool-belt gear (for scale) Sadly there is no torque wrench in the set, just a 1/4" ratchet. But that has great build quality, as do all the other components of the set. Wayne pudding Mol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was also going to suggest a 3D print. I've got a 3D printed hollowtech crank tool which I use quite often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisF Posted May 23, 2022 Share Saw a post some time back about reading glasses that can fold up and pack away small in a toolbag .... darned if I can find that post .... At the time we were laughing about me needing glasses next to the trail .... This weekend friends got stuck .... lack of glasses did not help .... eventually had to ask other riders to assist.

My sunglasses is prescription bi-focal specifically for that reason. It also make reading the bike computer easier when riding. Hairy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
