SUSPENSION BEARING TOOL KIT PARK TOOL SBK-1

The Park Tool SBK-1 is a professional-level tool kit for removing and installing cartridge bearings in bicycle suspension pivots. Please note: this is not a kit of replacement bearings, but the suspension bearing tool kit used to replace them on the rear triangles and linkages of full suspension bikes in a precise, controlled way.

At the heart of the system are 27 precision-machined, hard-anodized guides, sized to cover a wide range of bearing inner and outer diameters. Combined with Park Tool's proven bearing press design, the guides push out the worn bearing and seat the new one perfectly square in its bore. Everything is organised in a convenient storage case, so every size is easy to find at the bench.

How the Park Tool SBK-1 tool kit works

• Extractor cups and drifts for outer diameters of 16, 17, 19, 20.6, 21, 22, 22.3, 24, 26, 28, 28.6, 30, 32 and 35 mm.
• Extractor studs and pilots for inner diameters of 8.5-9, 10, 12, 12.7, 15, 17 and 20 mm.
• The outer guide rests on the linkage structure while the press pushes the bearing out of its bore; during installation the guides keep the bearing aligned.
• Extraction requires at least 3 mm of flat linkage surface around the bearing to support the cup or drift.
• Where this surface is missing, Park Tool recommends the SHX-1 slide hammer bearing extractor as an alternative.
