A lock ring tool built in 48 hours
The first Abbey tool came before the company. In 2010 the pro race mechanic Jeff Crombie asked Jason Quade for a tool to check cassette lock rings, a daily job on a race team. Forty-eight hours later Quade was boring holes in lock rings and welding handles on them, and the first batch of 20 went to Crombie and other race mechanics.
Quade founded Abbey Bike Tools in 2012. By the 2013 Tour de France about six teams were using the Crombie tool, including the head mechanic of the team that won the overall classification. After the hand-made first run, Abbey partnered with a local Bend machine shop to put production on a steadier footing. A factory tour published by Escape Collective noted that Abbey had recently moved into far larger premises in Bend.
