Park Tool FR-1.3
$15.00 CAD
Shop-Grade Precision. Universal Clearance.
The engineering highlight of the Park Tool FR-1.3 is its 12-spline, 22.6mm diameter tool fitting combined with an expanded 14mm centre pass-through bore. This extra clearance allows mechanics to slide the tool directly over solid, nutted axles found on many hub setups. The precise spline profile ensures full engagement with the internal lockring or body of the freewheel, allowing you to apply high torque using a standard 1" wrench or bench vise without stripping the tool or damaging the hub.
Why the Park Tool FR-1.3 is a Workshop Essential:
-
12-Spline Precision Interface: Engineered specifically to fit 12-spline, 22.6mm diameter freewheels from Shimano, Sachs, Aris, SunTour, SunRace, DNP Epoch, and other major manufacturers.
-
14mm Enlarged Center Bore: Accommodates wider solid axle nuts and quick-release axle ends, enabling fast removal without removing axle hardware.
-
Heat-Treated Alloy Tool Steel: Built for severe daily shop use, resisting rounding, twisting, and chipping under extreme leverage.
-
Thin-Wall Construction: Allows effortless insertion into tight freewheel cavities without binding against outer bearing cones.
-
Versatile Drive Options: Features a 1" (25.4mm) hex base designed for use with an adjustable wrench, 1" socket, or clamped directly into a bench vise for maximum breakaway torque.

The Alegro Perspective: In the service department, the FR-1.3 is an absolute essential for maintaining commuter, vintage, and modern entry-level bikes equipped with threaded freewheels. The 14mm enlarged center bore is a huge quality-of-life upgrade over older freewheel removers because it fits right over solid axles with zero interference. Paired with a 1" wrench or clamped in a bench vise, it easily pops off stubborn, high-torque freewheels without damaging the splines.
