Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I bought this because I have a can-do attitude about being able to fix anything! Bicycle? I can fix a bicycle. How hard can it be? When you have to ask yourself that question, you're asking for a rude awakening. Bikes, man. Freaking bikes. I bought a bike and decided to forgo the ridiculous assembly fee some places charge. What? $49 for something I could do free? They must think I'm a sucker. Well, I am a sucker. For thinking I can assemble a bike on my own. I didn't have the tools, the pump to inflate the tires or the means of installing the new rubber. I had instructions written in Chinese (not kidding) but thankfully there were pictures so I went off that. After a lot of swearing, temper tantrums, pinching my fingers and getting grease in just about every crease of my body, I managed to get the chain on the gears only to realize the thing was still about four links too long. A too-long chain will jump off the gear and send your butt flying at just the horribly right moment. I tightened down the handlebars will all my might and they still manage to flop down. Turns out my might is the same as Popeye's without his spinach. All told, it took me a heck of a lot more time assembling the bike than I thought and realized that maybe, just maybe, that $49 wasn't so bad after all. I wouldn't have been able to assemble the bike in the least without this tool though. This tool saved my bacon big time. Because parts on a bike do not subscribe to conventional tool usage. They have to be all special and complicated and stupid. This tool helps lessen the special and complicated but the parts are still stupid.
