I hope it's better quality than my Chinese drill taps otherwise you'll need a proper extractor to extract the extractor.

I bought a cheaper, smaller, as in just a few discs, version. Unbranded, cheap Ali but works fine on any work I need to do at home.

I think that sums it up, it's not going to be a professional quality piece of kit, but should be a fair bit better than what most of us would cobble up at home.oxoman said:I'd hope so. TBH it doesn't look bad for the money. Better than what I normally knock up to do a bearing myself.

I’ve got one of these, and it’s very good quality, but it’s of limited use for wheels because it doesn’t have over axle drifts needed for rear wheels, and the threaded rod is too wide for front axles. (I still use a QR skewer for front wheels). It is useful for press fit BBs, but there are better BB specific kits that have parts to allow you to push out the cups too.1

is this one of those things where if you are going to use it everyday you pay top follar for something that is bang tidy and does the job perfect - but costs - but if its for a random job (say changing wheel bearings once every 6 years) you may as well take it to a shop and chuck them £15 to do it?
As Bobonesxsays, it doesn't do wheels very well and it only does half a job on b/bs....
.The camera down the willy isn't anything like as bad as it sounds.
