So what I think the tools I'm going to start with are the tools to change a cassette. Once I get comfortable with that, I might try other specific tools.

I don't plan on making a living doing this, in fact, I expect I might use the tools maybe a dozen times total, so I don't want to go off buying top-of-the-line stuff. I'm not going to be starting my own bike tuning business.

I looked on Amazon and found this: https://www.amazon.com/Bikehand-Shim...dDbGljaz10cnVl

So the questions I pose to you, all knowing Bike Forum, is will this tool work for most standard wheels? Of my bikes now, I have Bontrager, Ritchey and whatever came on my Specialized (Can't remeber. AVS or something). Next question. I figure most of these are made of low grade Chinesium, but do you think it's good enough for 10-12 jobs without mucking up the components?
