Park Tool DT-5.2 disc mount facing tool standoff holder

thingiverse

The Park Tool DT-5.2 disc brake mount facing tool arrives in a sturdy plastic box with precision-cut foam inserts that cradle each component perfectly. However, the standoffs and center pin required for working with flat mount disc brakes are carelessly tossed into a small plastic pouch - an arrangement that seemed decidedly unorthodox. To rectify this situation, I created a custom holder to secure these components firmly in place. The two gray standoffs destined for the front fork feature M5x0.8mm threading, ensuring they remain stable and secure. In contrast, the black standoffs designed for the rear brake incorporate O-rings that snugly grip them, necessitating smooth holes with a subtle taper to facilitate effortless insertion. Meanwhile, the silver center pin used on flat mount front brakes serves as a precision guide, replacing the stock black center pin.
