Abbey Bike Tools: Top Cap Socket 28mm
Description
Suspension service is a specialty within bicycle repair and it takes specialized tools to perform this work. One of the things that any factory tech will tell you is nice to have are sockets specifically made or altered for the low profile hex on the top of each fork leg. The lead in or chamfer on a standard socket will greatly decrease the contact between tool and part and can easily scratch or deform those nuts. For years shops have been grinding down their sockets to remove the chamfer. Problem is you're still often left with a loose fitting socket that is still prone to chewing up those delicate parts. That's why we started from scratch.
We made our sockets from billet aluminum to exacting tolerances to keep these parts in good shape. fully CNC'd machined with zero lead in, they make the specialty that is suspension service a little bit easier. They feature a 3/8" square drive for use with your favorite torque wrench as well as finger splines to help run the top caps into the fork legs with those oil soaked hands. We also kept them short (1" or 25mm for all sizes) to reduce the chance of them caming off of the top cap under torque.
Offered in a 7 individual sizes and a 6 socket set for most modern suspension forks on the market.

Our 6000 over axle adapter is used to press 6000 sealed bearings into hub shells or suspension components. An over axle adapter is necessary when the bearing slides over the axle before it is pressed into the hub shell or suspension component. In addition to the adapter, you often need spacers to clear the end of the axle and allow enough clearance for the press to fully push in the bearing.

Stock Code:SWTL-QDFD
The Quick Drop Fork Dummy lets you remove a fork from a bike in seconds without losing any headset or cockpit hardware. Bearings stay seated, spacers stay in order, and the stem remains aligned while the fork is out. Built for fast bikeshop jobs.
HOW IT WORKS
The tip of the Top Part matches the inner diameter of a standard steerer tube. It is slightly tapered and features a strong integrated neodymium magnet.
Remove your top cap, insert the Quick Drop into the steerer from above, and push the fork downward. As the fork slides down, the tool stays into the steer tube being held by the tight tolerances and the magnet.
You can guide the fork down or lightly pull it while the tool follows smoothly into the headset and frame, holding bearings, spacers, and stem in position.
The lower bearing may stay on the fork during removal. If using the Top + Bottom Kit, place that bearing onto the bottom piece, reinsert both parts into the frame, align them, then rotate 180° to lock the system together.
The magnetic tip also makes reinstallation easier. When guiding the steerer back into position, the magnet helps catch and align the tool instantly, making engagement quick and controlled.
The holding force is strong enough to keep everything composed, even allowing the bike to be turned upside down temporarily if needed during service or short-term storage.$44.90 (RRP) -
