What Is It?
The Park Tool FR-2 Freewheel Remover – SunTour 2-Pin is a professional-grade tool designed to remove older SunTour® two-notch (2-pin) threaded freewheels. Precision-machined from heat-treated alloy tool steel, it securely engages the two-notch interface on compatible freewheels, allowing safe removal using an adjustable wrench, 1" socket, or bench vice.
The FR-2 is specifically designed for older SunTour® two-notch freewheels and should not be used on later four-notch SunTour freewheels or cassette lockrings.

Who Is This Best Suited For?
The Park Tool FR-2 Freewheel Remover is ideal for:

- Home bike mechanics
- Vintage bicycle restorers
- Road cyclists with older bikes
- Touring cyclists
- Commuters

Compatibility Note: The FR-2 fits older SunTour® two-notch freewheels only. It is not compatible with SunTour® four-notch freewheels, which require the Park Tool FR-3, nor is it suitable for cassette lockrings. For best results, keep the wheel's quick-release skewer or axle nut in place to hold the tool securely during removal and help prevent the tool from slipping.
