BBB Cycling PadAlign BTL-196

This seemed like an essential tool in the pursuit of perfectly functioning derailleurs and smooth shifting. I have already used this on about 5 bikes now and the tool works perfectly. No backlash. Solid to wring on. Handy because of the sliding mechanism. In short, nothing to criticise. But all in all, in hindsight the usefulness is limited because derailleur pads are so solid these days that alignment is actually practically no longer necessary and if there is even a small deviation, you hardly get it corrected because the pad is so solid. But that doesn't detract from the quality of the BBB BTL-196, of course.
