Choose the socket kit or chain whip combination

These CYCLISTS cassette-service options are offered as a guided lockring socket with extension sleeve, or as the combination set that adds a chain whip. The actual option photographs show the supplied components. Choose the configuration required for the bicycle cassette and tools already available.

Guided lockring socket and removable sleeve

The socket has an external wrenching surface, cassette-lockring spline profile and central guide pin. A separate sleeve fits over the guide as illustrated. Check the lockring pattern, axle opening and available clearance before use. A suitable external wrench is used in the demonstration and is not supplied as part of these options.

Chain whip and hook-profile end

The combination set includes the Black chain whip with textured rubber grip, attached chain and a hook-profile end. The chain holds a cassette sprocket while the lockring is loosened with the socket and an appropriate external wrench. The hook-profile end is also described in the source for suitable hub lockrings; check the actual lockring fit.
