In this article I will review the Hazet 2162M Mini Grease Gun that I have on my work bench since the early 2000’s. While it started to lubricate my Speedplay Zero Stainless pedals it has grown into an allround product that is helpful in many use case, where precision application is required.

Pedros Chain Checker Plus II
In this article I will show the design and capabilities of the Pedros Chain Checker Plus II which can do more than simply checking the wear of your chain. I will try to compare with the Park Tool CC-4 Chain Checker that lacks these additional capabilities.
Topeak Shuttle Gauge Digital review
In this article I will share my thoughts about the Topeak Shuttle Gauge Digital that I use in combination with the SKS Germany Rennkompressor floor pump and a Tire Pressure Calculator. Getting your tire pressure right is extremely important, and something I certainly got wrong for a long time (to much pressure in my road race tires).
BSCTools Shimano Preload Tool Bit for Hollowtech II Cranks
In this article I will review the BSCTools Shimano Preload Tool Bit for Shimano Hollowtech II cranks. It is basically a 1/4″ bit with pre-loadcap-shape that can be used with the BSCTools SDH-1 screwdriver, or with the Hazet 2262 screwdriver with 1/4″ bitholder or the PB Swiss Tools PB 186.6-100M bitholder screwdriver.
Hazet 863P 1/4″ Reversible ratchet
The Hazet 863P 1/4″ reversible ratchet is in my toolbox for a long time. I have a set of Hazet reversible ratchets with 1/2″, 3/8″ and 1/4″ sockets. Reliable, well engineered and very useful to have in the tool cabinet of a home mechanic. I will briefly compare with the Wera Zyklop 8000 series ratchet.
CEMA Bearing SRC-TT-B019 Bottom Bracket Tool
In this article I will review the CEMA Bearing SRC-TT-B019 Bottom Bracket Tool, that I’ve used to install a CEMA Bearing Interlock BB86-BB92 Bottom Bracket on the Scott Scale 925 mountain bike. I will try to provide my view on the quality, design and my practical experiences.
Park Tool SR-11 Chain Whip
In this article I will have a look at the Park Tool SR-11 Chain Whip that I’m using for over at least 10+ years. It was one of the first home mechanic tools that I’ve purchased together with the Shimano TL-LR10 Cassette Removal tool. And after all these year the Park Tool SR-11 Chain Whip is still going strong, with very limited wear.
Crankbrothers Cleat Tool for Shimano SPD
In this article I will review the Crankbrothers Cleat Tool for Shimano SPD, Time ATAC and Crankbrothers Eggbeater cleats. It is a small tool that might be able to compete with the Ergon TP1 Cleat Tool for Shimano SPD. I will share my experiences and why I think it should be part of your travel toolbox.
Topeak Nano TorqBit for TorqBar
The Topeak Nano TorqBit is a 1/4″ hex bit with a fixed preset torque value that you can use with each bit holder and each bit. I personally use it in combination with the Fix It Sticks T-Way wrench that I reviewed a little while ago, but it also comes in a set called the Topeak Nano TorqBar.
I will also compare the Topeak Nano TorqBit against the Ritchey Torque Key which also has a fixed preset torque value.
Park Tool BBT-10 Preload cap tool Shimano Hollowtech II cranks
In this article I will share my experience with the Park Tool BBT-10 Preload cap tool Shimano Hollowtech II cranks. I have been using this tool for a long time to adjust the pre-load on Shimano Dura Ace 9000, Shimano Deore XT M8100 and Shimano GRX 820 Hollowtech II cranksets
