Bearing puller tool kit for Mondraker MTB frame pivots - Crafty, Dune, Foxy, etc

Each kit is tailor made with all of the tool sizes required to remove all of the rear suspension pivot bearings from the selected frame (one, two, three or more tools depending on the frame).

The kit will include one tool for each combination of bearing inside diameter and bearing width found on the frame (the bearing outside diameter doesn't matter for this tool).  These dimensions are engraved on the tool for easy selection.

This expading type tool can even remove the small bearings, 'blind bearings' and back-to-back bearings that other tools can't.

V2 Expanding Pullers

Our puller kits now use our V2 expanding puller.  The V2 tool includes several important improvements:

• Grip has been greatly increased by including a ridge at the end of the tool to engage with the chamfer on the inside diameter of the bearing
• Tool durability has been increased by machining all sizes from 303 stainless steel
• The force required to tighten the tool has been reduced by refinding the tool profile

All of our tools are designed and precision machined by ourselves, here in the UK, and shipped internationally.

How To

The bearing puller tool is simple to use. As well as the puller you will need a pair of spanners (or one spanner and a set of pliers), a hammer and a rod/drift/old bolt to tap the tool out with

• Insert the circular end of the tool into the centre of the bearing. Grip the body of the tool across it's flats with a spanner or pliers and tighten the nut. This will expand the tool, gripping the bearing
• With the hub/frame supported on a bench or block of wood, the bearing and tool can be tapped out together by simply insert a rod/drift/old bolt into the other side of the bearing and tapping the end of the rod with a hammer

See our Manuals page to download the more detailed instruction sheets which come with our puller orders, now available in several languages.

Here's a quick demo of the tool's use on a hub:

Presses

See also our bearing presses, which are available in all of the same sizes and kits as our bearing pullers

Our tools can be selected either by the bearing size or by the bearing's standard reference code.

Standard references take the form of a three or four digit number, such as 688, or 6902 for example. These codes are often moulded onto the bearing's seal. You might see something like 6902-2RS on the seal. The first digits are the standard reference.  The second part (2RS in this case) refers to the seal type and doesn't matter for tool selection.

Alternatively, tools can be selected by their inside (ID) and outside (OD) diameters and width.

Note that each tool is specific to one bearing size and can’t be used on bearings with different dimensions.
