Think there is a market for this? you send me the crank and I retap it and install the single key release for like $50? The beauty is the tool works on all spindles and can be used and TA and StrongLight too!
Stein also makes a M24 x 1.5 crank puller to use on a re tapped crank. I have the complete tool and the puller, and a diminishing supply of the self extractors and it works great, but if I were to do it over, I think I would try going with the chuck removal wedges. Much more cost effective.
BTW, the tool can only be used to tap a crank that is mounted on a spindle as the pilot screws into the spindle to guide the tap in straight.
