Picking up a strap for my Motors T next week. What's the best tool to use to swap between the strap and the bracelet? I've read on the boards that there are two tools and other posts that say one will suffice. Any advice? The one I've heard of was: Bergeon 6767F springbar tool.

That's what I use. Some people prefer the 6825 which is the double ended one to compress both springs in the bar at the same time.

I have both. It's just easier to use the 6767-F

I also use the 6767F (make sure you get that "F" in the end though, otherwise it will most likely be too big). I'm just the opposite of Maverick, I find it marginally easier to put the strap/bracelet back on then taking it off.

I agree - I can get them on really easily now, but always find that I really need an extra hand getting them off - especially the bracelet.
