BIHR screwdriver

BIHR offers this screwdriver. The screwdriver is used to tighten and undo the screws on the bike: hose clamps, carburettor, small covers and accessories.

Why a good screwdriver?

The benefits:

• Blade in treated alloy steel (chrome-vanadium, for example): the tip stays crisp and does not bend.
• Depending on the model, a magnetic tip: the screw stays on the blade and does not drop into the engine.
• Two-material handle that does not slip in an oily hand and lets you push hard without hurting yourself.

Why choose BIHR?

Bihr is a distributor from Alsace founded in 1975 by Cyrille Bihr, who started out with a bicycle and motorcycle repair shop in Hegenheim. Based in Bartenheim, it supplies more than 200,000 parts from seven European warehouses and develops its own range of parts and workshop tools.

When should you replace this tool?

A rounded, chipped or bent tip slips and damages screw heads: replace the screwdriver, and likewise one with a cracked handle.

Specifications and fitting tips

• Manufacturer part number: L35-497

Cross-Mania tip: Choose a blade that fills the whole recess, push firmly in line before turning and, on Japanese bikes, use a JIS screwdriver: a Phillips tends to cam out of JIS screws and damage them.

Compatibility

Workshop tool: it works on any motorcycle or ATV. Just check the size or dimension stated.
