Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

This tool will save me countless dollars in service costs at my lbs. It is very very expensive though.

This is a good addition to a bicyclist tool bench if they are serious cyclists. A great investment for the home mechanic.
