Shimano TL-FC 16 Crank Arm Installation Tool
I just ordered a shimano 105 (2006) double chainset from probikekit.com, and they said I need to buy this for installation: Shimano TL-FC 16 Crank Arm Installation Tool $5.99
It seems this is not a necessary tool. Anybody know what this is/does? I have a shimano Bearing Cup Spanner
Thanks,
Brian

It's for attaching an outboard bearing bottom bracket to the frame, which it appears the 105 group uses (instead of an ISIS or Octalink bottom bracket)
Same as this:
