Anyone tried using this cheapie Draper tool to rewind the rear pistons? Any other suggestions of suitable tools for the job that won't break the bank?

Regarding the first pic.......mine's bigger than yours:nerner:
Regarding the second pic..........unfortunately, mine's bigger than yours too

hehehehehehehehe nice one hehehehehhe

Had to laugh at you guys and your 'my toolbox is bigger than yours' competition I can safely say that mine doesn't compete . . . in fact, mine is non-existent. Does this make me a complete Forum heathen???

But you're a girlie, you are allowed to not have one, it's in the rules

Perfect, well that's OK then! Am I allowed to have a nice mechanic friend who is happy to do it all for me?? Sadly for a fee of course . . .

As we say oop 'ere in't Norf............you dont get 'owt for nowt

Too right . . . service and cam belt change looming on Thursday

Ouch
Glad I do it all myself

You get extra points if you do and if you know how to use them.

Well you do in my book

No no Doc, it's about the only time that we men can be chivalrous, helping out poor stuck girlies

At the risk of wandering even further off-thread, I'm tempted to ask which is the more important - the size of one's toolbox or the frequency with which it is used.

Going back to the cheapie Draper cube-type thingie, a post on the Stilo technical page suggests that it works OK on Stilo rear discs, so I might give it a go - it's worth the risk at only £6.99, & if it's useless, there's always ebay.

chival what ?
