After spending 2 hours trying to install a new snap ring to the front brake master cylinder on my '73 Yamaha RD350, I finally came across this.I installed my snap ring in 5 minutes. Mine tool did not break, or show any signs of breaking. The tool has decent weight, and as far as I'm concerned, payed for itself with that one job.This is a close copy to a more expensive tool, and I'm glad I went with this version. I've bought something else from Toolwiz, and it also worked for what I bought it for.Simply put - if you have a hard to reach, internal snap ring, with small holes, this may save you a lot of headache.I would buy this again even if it does break on me down the line. I only needed it to work once and it saved so much time.(Photo - old snap ring on the bench, new one in the master cylinder)

After reading another review that the snap ring pliers worked on Sram Guide R brake levers, I ordered the longer blue handled ones just in case for even deeper snap ring locations on future projects. They worked great to remove and reinstall the snap ring that holds the white plastic master cylinder piston in place in the Sram Guide R brake lever. The snap ring pliers' tips fit very snug into the master cylinder snap ring holes. I had also read online that this can be done without removing the brake lever from the brake line. So, I tried that by removing the brake lever from the handlebar and wire tying it to the handlebar facing up so no brake fluid would be lost. It worked great and saved a lot of time not having to remove the bike wheel, brake pads, pushing in 4 caliper pistons to insert Sram brake bleed block and then bleed both the caliper and master cylinder. All I had to do in the end is just bleed the master cylinder because when you push the master cylinder piston back in to reinstall, you entrap a small amount of air. That can be removed by using the Sram syringe half-filled with brake fluid screwed into the bleed port on the master cylinder and pushing and pulling the syringe plunger until there aren't any air bubbles left. The reason I had to do this job is because the master cylinder pistons are too tight in the master cylinder which I believe is from the actual machining diameter of the master cylinder being too small. My Sram brake levers came with the 2nd version pistons (smaller diameter) that was supposed to fix this issue. I needed to hand sand the pistons down to 9.0 to 9.1 mm in diameter using calipers to measure. They measured about 9.35 mm in diameter before sanding. I never noticed this on cool days. But on hot days, the brakes levers would start sticking and not releasing the brake pads. I also stretched the piston spring out a little bit so the lever would snap back more forcefully when releasing the lever when not braking. I hope this helps anyone else who is having this problem with their Sram Guide R brake levers.

I used it for the snap ring at the bottom of a throttle slide in an older motorcycle. I needed something thin with a good reach, these worked perfectly. The 90 degree angle is also good as it keeps your hand out of your line of sight so you can see what you're working with. They don't feel like they'd hold up for really heavy duty use but for my purpose they were exactly what I needed.
