Hollowtech Tools

Realise this should maybe be in another thread but has anyone got any opinions, or experience on which of these Hollowtech tools are best (too many to choose from!)?

Personally I use the Park one you point to out and about but the Park socket version in the workshop. It allows a torque wrench to be used.

Strictly speaking these are Hollowtech 2 tools btw - Hollowtech is a different fitting!

I think you still get the shimano tool free if you buy a Shimano H2 bottom bracket

they are all much of a muchness really, the hollowtech 2 are a doddle to fit, I've got the shimano original tools.

Just get the x tools one from chain reaction cycles. It's the cheapest one i could find and it does the job well.

omegas

yes the X-tool is good as any and the cheapest with with both tools in one.

Cheers guys appreciate the advice.

I can see the sense in using the socket one so you can get the correct torque

Didn't get any tools with my new BB?!
