Removing the adjustable and fixed cups on an old Raleigh bike is made much easier with the aid of Bikesmith Designs Removal Tool

Removing and installing cotter pins is best done with a press to avoid risk of damaging the pins or worse, the BB cups.

The teeth on these 46 year old chrome plated steel chainwheels are in perfect shape, I've never seen used aluminum chainwheels look this good...
