ACS Freewheel Removal with Park FR-6
Good morning, everyone. Quick question:
Can I use a Park FR-6 to remove an ACS PAWS-style freewheel?
I ordered a tool from Amazon, but it turns out that it was for the "Crossfire" series.
Will the standard Park FR-6 4-pin tool work with the ACS PAWS 8-slot style? I can't find dimensions anywhere to try and confirm.
y freewheel looks something like this:
Thanks.

Very likely, yes.
Also, this: https://www.amazon.com/ACS-151265-FW...s%2C162&sr=8-5
will work on almost any single speed FW.

I hadn't seen that tool.
It looks like from the reviews a few people said that it works for Shimano 4-prong freewheels. That seems to imply that if this tool works for Shimano freewheels, then the Park tool should work for the ACS ones. Of course that might not necessarily be the case, but if not, the Park FR-6 doesn't take up too much space in the toolbox, and it's only $15

Looks like the Crossfire is a 6 notch design, and the SF1200 has something totally different as well. Unfortunately the FR-6 will not work with either one of those.
