SANTA CRUZ CLOSED LINK TOOL SET BY RWC
$277.00

This special reduced price combination kit for Santa Cruz bicycles closed linkage bearings includes:

RWC 7900 Closed Link Bearing Extractor and Press
RWC 7902 Closed Link Bearing Extractor and Press
RWC Handle Set 2

We at RWC do not like using hammers around our bicycle frames. We recommend putting down the punch and hammer and using our precision machined (in the USA) tool to remove and install bearings in a slow, controlled manner. Our special cutout even allows you to view the extraction process as it takes place.

Additionally, if you find yourself in the unfortunate situation of having a broken bearing in your linkage, our reversible collets have one side dedicated to removing the outer races of broken bearings. This side of the collet grips the bearing race in two places: the ID of the rounded ball path and the ID of the seal groove.

In addition to smooth and controlled bearing extraction, male and female bearing installation guides for perfect alignment of the new bearings are also included.

    • Too easy
      These tools look, feel, and perform at an amazing level.  Removing closed link bearings has been a “hope for the best” type of maintenance in the past, with something usually going wrong and creating one of those days where you would have been better off leaving your bike alone.  Tools work flawlessly and easy, just like in the videos.

    • Wish I had found this sooner!
      after having a bad experience with a blind bearing puller (the type you crank down and hit out with a punch and hammer), I kept searching and finally found these amazing tools. with the prior tool set purchased from E-Bay- I think I ruined 3 bearings trying to press them in straight, then removing and repressing it. It became a frustrating situation. When I ordered these tools, they arrived 2 days later and I immediately was able to follow instructions via the videos and it was almost too easy. What I like is that the tools are functional and they look great. You can tell there was a lot of thought that went into making these tools. Even if they aren't the cheapest, they are worth it with the time and frustration saved... I love the fact I don't have to hammer anything out.
      Customer service with these guys is amazing as well... Chris got back to me quickly and answered my questions quickly and was very interested in my experience with the tools.
