really good kit. amazing price and worked like a dream. It is great for wheel bearings that are serviced. Not sure I would use for bearings and axles that are seized.

Replaced the stock bearings in my rear hub with this set and it was so easy! I can see this tool being very handy in years to come. Nice quality bearing press!

So much easier than trying to press in bearings with a bolt, washers and nuts. it had exactly the size that I needed for my bicycle suspension pivot bearings. They slid right in with very little effort.

Seems to be of good quality and therefore good value for money.

Bought this recently and have used it to service a rear bicycle wheel. Worked flawlessly and I even used it to extract a deep bearing from a free hub. I have no idea how they can make and sell something this good at this price!. I just wish I had bought something like this years ago.

For YEARS I messed around with threaded rods, sockets, washers, pieces of hardwood to press in bearings but I FINALLY broke down and bought this press kit. WORTH EVERY PENNYI just got done pressing in new bearings in my industry 9 torch front hubs and it was smooth as silk pressing them in with this kit. Invest a few bucks and learn how to maintain your own bike. Repairs like this can be done quicker than driving to your lbs and THEN being without your bike for DAYS while it waits to get serviced. $40 for this kit is a drop in the bucket for a tool that’ll last a lifetime and make your job all that much easier!

Useful for any press in wheel or bottom bracket bearings. Should work for most headsets unless the head tube is really long. Easy to justify a $43 expense rather than banging on $100 ceramic wheel bearings. The case is meh but the machining and finish are really good.

The adapters are perfectly sized, the threads feel solid and run smooth. It's not intended to be a puller, but you may be able to pull bearings, with some creating finagling.Update: make sure to carefully count the adapters. It should have 2 of each. My kit arrived with 3 of one size, and only 1 of another size, so I had to return it to get the missing adapter.

Replaced all my cycle wheel bearings with this set no problem at all. Every size of drift you will ever need for bikes and clearly marked on each piece. Happy days.

I usually don't do reviews, but with this one I really wanted to help the mountain bike community. I easily pulled and replaced 12 pivot bearings in my 2018 Norco Sight A2, including 6901's, 6902's, and 6800's. I had never pulled or pressed bearings before and was a bit intimidated by this task. I had no guidance or help other than u-tube. Although not stated by the seller, this tool can be used as a puller and easily pulled all my bearings. I initially tried a slide puller, a very violent process, and couldn't even budge the bearings. But when I improvised and used this press, they came out easily with little force. There are no instructions, so you have to use a little ingenuity to figure out how to extract the bearings using this tool. Just watch some of the videos. I used a socket with a 12 mm press fitting mounted on the 1/2" drive (keeps the press straight) to catch the bearings. I also improvised with a washer in a tight spot. Pressing the bearings was very easy, just take your time and ensure they go in straight. Trust me, if you are mechanically inclined, this bearing press works for both pulling and pressing and is worth every cent. It saved me a big shop bill. Submitted by Jerry

Have not used the press so I cannot comment on how well it works, but it showed up damaged and previously used. Returned the tool
