TL-UN74
Suits standard, ISIS and Octalink bottom brackets.

We've tried the cheaper substitutes, but have returned to the reliable quality of Shimano. For use with a 32mm spanner. We use one of these in our workshop (as well as a 1/2" ratchet drive alternative) for removing seized or too-tight bottom brackets as this tool can be held firmly in place with a bolt running into or through the bottom bracket axle (and washers) while great force can be applied to turning it. Weight: 84g.
