Bottom Bracket Tool - Need Help Identifying What I Need
#1
What tool do I need to get the bottom bracket bearing cups off my bike? Surely there's a tool. I've taken a picture of a bearing cup from my bike viewable via the link below.

It has to be easy with the right tool. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

What's the size of the Park HCW-11? Would it fit a 15mm step on the bearing cup?

Here is the complete information for the HCW-11 from that Maker. And yes it would fit 15mm. http://www.parktool.com/products/detail.asp?cat=25&item=HCW-11.

There is another such tool but costs more, I have one and it is very nice,

Ye and you can always use a one size fits many adjustable wrench if you got one on hand. And actually parkstools makes a 12" one I just got, along with a steering head wrench. Carefully.
