Will this cheap removal tool do!?

I need to swap a super record 11 speed cassette over.
Will this £5 tool do?

Yes

 

[Ming the Merciless]

Yes

Will it? Description says freewheel or BB not cassette.

You'll probably need a chain whip as well.

You got me thinking, but the reviews elsewhere mention cassette ?

I’ve already got one from shimano days

Free wheel means the lock ring for cassette.

Free wheel means the lock ring for cassette.

Cassettes go on freehubs. Freewheels are the earlier screw on setup back from days of 5 speed etc.

I think you are safe to go with this as the Campag freewheels had two notches for the removal tool.

Yeah but we are not talking about freewheels we are talking about free hubs but some vendors write the wrong things.

It’s the same but £3 more expensive but correctly named on the website.

 

[fossyant]

Worse case, send it back as not advertised. Looks the right part TBH.

 

[Milzy]

I don’t need Shimano tool though as I started with Shimano first so already have one. Been waiting weeks for that tool was out of stock and the post is snail slow.

This tool (linked in OP) will fit Campagnolo lockrings AND 'normal' (ie not ancient) freewheels. A separate freewheel tool has longer splines for a more assured interface given how stuck freewheel blocks often are.
