Do SM-BBR60 bottom brackets come with tool?
Recently ordered a new BBR60 that had the TL-FC32 pictured.. I was sent one that doesn't have it. Says on the box w/o TLFC. Do any of these come the tool?

You might ask the place you ordered the BB from and point out to them that it was in the picture of what you assumed was included in the purchase. For the most part you need to read what the product description says you are buying. However I've never seen the tool itself included if you are talking about this.....
Don't know why they'd include a tool that cost as much as the BB. I have had some of the little plastic adapters that work in various tools come with some Shimano components I've ordered. But it's been a while since I've even seen them do that.

When Shimano changed the OD of the HT II BB making it smaller they started including a plastic adapter ring with new BB to use the older larger tools on the smaller cup.
I'd imagine by now lots of LBS types have a slew of those plastic rings and I'd guess now Shimano offers them without the adapter.

I purchased one about three months ago. It did not come with a tool.
