Hi,
Thank you very much.
I did search for adjustable hook wench and found some suitable ones in Amazon, but they are quite expensive, about US$80 inc shipping. I have not checked GUm yet partly because their operating hours is unfriendly (to me).
Actually my problem is that my LT’ BB is making creaking noise when I peddle hard. I read a little and it seems I need to remove the lock ring and remove the BB assembly, clean the inside, apply some lub and lock it back tight. My LT is only 2.5 month old.
Thanks anyway.

Hello stccmc,

nice to see you here, welcome
If it’s correct that you’re from Hong Kong (?) then you should be able to find a suitable tool locally, I mean…
Did you try your local web search with the (translated) words “hook spanner 60 mm”, “hook wrench 60 mm”, “hook key 60 mm”,
maybe “adjustable spanner wrench”, “adjustable ‘C’ hook spanner”?
You might of course also use an adjustable hook wrench of matching size (range), for example
http://www.skf.com/group/products/maintenance-products/mechanical-tools-for-mounting-and-dismounting/bearing-fitting-tools/adjustable-hook-spanners/index.html
(If possible, check the dimensions of the tool’s hook - or nose - to fit the slot of the big groove nut.)

Hopefully you could find more info with the links above,
these hook keys are also used for some motorcycles - should be available at the tool suppliers of workshops.
…and did you already ask Strida Hong Kong?
G.U.M.
