Which crank?

Re: Saying Hi

I was referring to specialist tools like rear hub puller / holder , flywheel puller / holding tool, clutch compressor, clutch holding tool, crank puller / holder / removing tools, fork spring compressor, steering clamp spanners etc etc. If you don’t have access to any I’ll lend you mine mate.
