Brand New Version as of September 2023!
The steel has been upgraded to 51crV4 with a black zinc plating. This means the tool is stronger and more resistant to corrosion.
We still recommend using a penetrating lubricant prior to removing freewheels as many have been seized on after years of use.

Having trouble removing a pesky freewheel on a Bafang 750 watt motor? Due to the large motor plug, standard tools just don't work! We've taken on the challenge and decided to make our own.
UPDATE: To keep up with demand and maintain quality we have moved production of these tools to a specialized supplier overseas.
Works on both Shimano and DNP FreeWheels.
Flats are designed for a 23mm wrench.

Great service from Area...
The first tool Area 13 shipped to me in New Zealand went missing somewhere in transit. I contacted them about the non-delivery and they straightaway said they would ship a replacement via DHL which arrived promptly. Great service - thank you.

Freewheel...
The freewheel did not want to come off. I applied some break free and let it set for a day. I was then able to loosen the freewheel. In the process the tool was slightly altered and I was unable to remove it. So I gently filed the peaks of nut until the tool came free.

New version ?
Your tool worked exactly the way you said it would. That freewheel cassette was so stuck, I had to jammed the wheel against an heavy trailer and use both hands to break it loose. The tool did not slip or bend. A little pricey but worth it. Cheers

Did the...
I was able to take the freewheel of, but in the process of doing that I damaged the tool. I had to put so much force, even though I soked it in penetrative oil, that it bended.
