Can someone show a link or point me to a half decent pair of circlip pliers suitable to work on my Lambretta ? Using flimsy Draper pair at moment which are useless really. Thanks

I like Teng tools, pretty good quality but without the silly price tag of snap on or Mac. You can get a nice Teng four piece set of circlip pliers off eBay for around £45.

Norris, those 9 inch ones may be a bit big for working on Lambretta's, 6 inch ones would be better.Norrie Bodge wrote:These look canny enough -> https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/120936207595

Went for just a pair of small 5inch Teng to work on small clips, brakes, gears, etc, so they should hopefully last me.

Yes perfect size for a Lambretta, I've got some bigger ones but ends are too thick for most circlips on a Lambretta.mr mugello wrote:Went for just a pair of small 5inch Teng to work on small clips, brakes, gears, etc, so they should hopefully last me.
I've been using a set of Bergen ones for 3 or 4 years that have coped with whatever the Lambretta can throw at them, only about £12.

Thanks. They look good value. Just paid £18 for the one Teng, but will be all I need hopefully. Makes job so much easier having decent tools. Does this set cover all clips including largest on Lambretta ?
