Bendix Wrenches
Double ended with slight
rotational offset for optimal placement. For working on coaster Bendix hubs two wrenches are required. For working on 2 speed hubs only one is required. $25 plus $4.00 shipping for a pair. (Schwinn catalog not included.) Laser cut steel, nothing fancy, will last practically forever. One end is 7/8", the other is 47/64". These work on Bendix hubs from the 1950s (smooth shell), 1960s (red band) and 1970s, USA and Mexico. These also fit Morrow hubs. See the bottom of the "Books and Catalogs" page to purchase.
