I hate chain whips! A much better tool for removing the cassette is the
Pedro’s Vise Whip. Yes, a bit expensive but it works so much better than a chain whip. I’d also suggest the
Pedro’s socket handle for the lockring. You’ll need get sockets for the handle to use on lockring but it’s a great tool that provides lots of leverage and doesn’t slip like an adjustable wrench can. You can also get a variety of other tools that fit the socket for bottom brackets. I use mine all the time.
