The idea was to save precious seconds when performing a bolt check, while avoiding the risk of dropping the skewer or nut under the workbench.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese days thru axles are common, so Abbey Bike Tools has conceived a dual sided version. One side will quickly remove Shimano and SRAM cassettes from bikes with regular hubs, while the other deals with the same cassettes on bikes with thru axle wheels with a 12mm fitment. A plus-sized piloting pin within the head achieves a precise, positive fit with maximum engagement, allowing you to work easily round both types of wheel attachment, without damaging the surface of either tool or cassette.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis beautifully engineered, machined and welded stainless steel tool is 9.5\" long, with a handle that is half an inch in diameter, lending a nice bit of weight to an impressively durable shop tool that stays centred and solid to shift stubborn cassettes. Or, if you're a race mechanic and weight is priority, you can choose the Super Light version with a hollowed-out handle, giving the same precision and managing lockrings torqued close to the 40NM spec, with less weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eSpecification\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYour solution for swapping S-Group cassettes with either quick release of thru axle fitments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrecision machined spline for added torque\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade from 17-4 stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable with hollowed-out handle for those who prioritise weight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA graduation of the original Abbey Bike Tool, made by and for pro mechanics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in Bend, Oregon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Abbey Bike Tools","offers":[{"title":"SHIMANO\/SRAM","offer_id":57373357048192,"sku":"7391898377552","price":82.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0858\/4882\/files\/0000042823.jpg?v=1774459832","url":"https:\/\/www.condorcycles.com\/de-de\/products\/abbey-bike-tools-dual-sided-thru-axle-crombie-tool","provider":"Condor Cycles","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
