Abbey Bike Tools Team Issue Modular Bearing Press Kit Green / One Size

With smooth action and a quality build, the Abbey Bike Tools Team Issue Modular Bearing Press Kit is designed to help you press in a wide variety of bottom brackets and headsets with minimal effort.

Where most press heads are glorified nuts, Abbey Bike Tools has crafted a solid thrust bearing with balls and races, which ensures the pressing action is buttery smooth and isolated from the torque. It can be turned by hand using the brand's signature finger spline pattern, or if you need a bit more leverage, there's a 6mm hex in the top ready to accommodate an Allen key.

The Press Kit comes with a selection of nine drifts, all of which are machined to fit like a glove, along with a centring cone that can be used on the empty side of your hub, frame or linkage to ensure the press is concentric with the bore. All of these are sized to the 1/2” thread, for consistency, so that the bearing or headset will go in straight each time.

At the other end of the press, a sturdy quick nut slides onto the thread and up to the drift, with no need for excessive turning, then clicks securely into place. It can be operated with one hand and offers fast, smooth action, with no pinch risk, making the whole job easier and quicker.

Abbey recommends installing bearings one at a time, using the centring cone, to ensure they settle in straight with minimal fuss and no danger of damage, either to them, the frame or your tools.

The whole Team Issue Modular Bearing Press is elegantly simple, offers smooth action on bottom brackets and headsets with minimal effort, takes up very little space, and strikes the perfect balance of being agile and also sturdy enough to press in cups with tight tolerances. It's well thought out and light, making it the perfect addition to traveling mechanics’ tool kits.
