Thanks to all and happy and happy Thanksgiving. Are you certain that HCW-5 is the tool I need? It looks like the BBT-7 would fit if only I narrowed the notches just a little. The dimensions listed for the HCW-5 are slightly smaller (major and minor diameters). Then again, I'm looking at the Park Big Blue Book and it does say the tool I bought is for Dura-Ace and I'm quite certain the existing BB isn't Dura-Ace.

I want to get another BB because I just had it overhauled by a shop and it started making clicking sounds after that just like a BB on another bike did before it needed to be replaced (however I was a little careless with that bike and sprayed liquid lube at the BB when it started "clicking" and got worse after that - now I know better). I'm about to tear this bike down and apply Frame Saver and do some painting and I want to have everything ready to go because this is the bike I ride almost daily.
