Finally riding a big boys bike
What are the differences between the discontinued Park FFS-1 and the replacement Park FFS-2 frame and fork straiteners ?
 
If there is a difference, it has to be minimal. It's a pretty simple, albeit useful, tool.
 
yeah, my bad, sorry. Too many tabs open on my end. Please forgive.
No problem , would you happen to know what difference if any there is between the FFS-1 and the FFS-2 that replaced it ? , I'm looking to possibly buy a used one if I can find one reasonable , thanks

I agree with @ricobike that there is not much difference if any.

But, I happened to be mucking about with a FFS-1 that I own, and I hope to repair my forum gaff above so I'll compare it to the current one at:


The differences are hard to see. If I squint, it looks like there are minor differences such as new decals, a different type of bolt is used to attached the swivel at the end (a recessed socket head machine screw instead of a hex head bolt). If I really squint hard the sliding-hook-question-mark thingy looks to be slightly larger. I can even convince myself this makes sense as through the years the tube diameter used on bikes has become a bit larger in diameter.

There are images to be found online, both discover-able with general image searches and with eBay. Again, I can't see any big differences. Even if the hook-thingy is larger, my guess is a larger hook is backwards compatible so you are not loosing anything.
 
A little off topic but has anyone tried to make their own? I’d be interested in some pictures, and maybe measurements if so…
