    I am in the process of replacing the lower triple because of some broken fork mounting bolts and need the remove the lock nuts. Not wanting to to spend the cash on a spanner wrench and not wanting to use a chisel and hammer I found this.


    $20 bucks at Home Depot for two of them. Made by Brasscraft Part #T149. Works like a champ. No busted knuckles or damaged lock nuts.

    The replacement triple was $7 and was cut off another bike.

    Remember where you store those tools, you're sure to need them again, in the next 20 years. :lol:

    Excellent I just did my bearings those would have come in handy.
    The punch and hammer worked just fine though.
