Rock Ring Wrench


The Hozan C-205 Lock Ring Wrench is one of my favorite tools. Yeah, it works well for removing lock rings but my favorite thing about it is the fact that there, cast in chromed steel, is evidence that communication is not always perfect and a few things do get lost in translation. As a kid, I used to have trouble pronouncing the letter "L" and I remember my teacher making me repeat the phrase "Larry likes to lick licorice lollypops." That probably explains my fondness for the Hozan Rock Ring Wrench.

  1. Most excellent. But I tend to prefer the one with the olden BB adjuster on the other end. You just never know when you'll need to field dress a loose bearing adjustable BB ;) Or whatever the technical term is for it...

  3. Clearly this tool is made in Japan, since Chinese has a perfectly usable "l" sound!
