Here's two of my favorites. CCP-2 crank puller, and a 1" wrench, for the cassette jobs.

Mtn Mike.......correct!....it's a headset press. It is used to press top and bottom headset cups into the headtube.

Dexmax.......your tool loads the bearings and after the stem bolts are tightened I assume the tool is removed? This is only for threadless systems.

Yes it is removed after everything is set. I use it only on forks with carbon steerers, where spangles may damage/score the inside's.
