Subject: [CR] BB Lock Ring Wrench


  I am just wondering if anybody knows of a near-universal bottom bracket lockring wrench that will work on a typical notched lockring.  I have a Campagnolo wrench which works great on Campagnolo and similarly sized lockrings, but it is very size-specific.  I have a Mavic bottom bracket that I want to unscrew and the diameter is tooo large for the Campy wrench and the typical stamped wrench with one prong is not up to the job.

Does anybody know of a tool that is effective in these circumstances that won't wreck the slots?  I apologize if this is a repeat question - I did have a look in the archives but didn't come up with anything.

Thanks
