Danny Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 Cant go wrong with park (Y) ← Except for their crank extractors that have a built in 'arm' they suck because as soon as you get the arm parallel to the crank your knackered. I much prefer mine which you just do with a 15mm spanner. Think its a shimano one. As well as their little chain tools. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Cook Posted May 7, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 Ok. I will go for all the Park tools, apart from the crank extractor. Cheers for all the help guys (Y) Any more opinons still taken though :-" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben_travis Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 pedros is superb stuff as well, but just same quality as park, little bit cheaper than park in my experiences and if u can get some ball ended allen keys as they allow you to get in those niggly places. ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Drewery Posted May 8, 2005 Report Share Posted May 8, 2005 Looks a good buy to me, but thats only because im always losing tools and getting annoyed when i need them but cant find them :( . Also, good quality tools are very useful to have, nicer on expensive bikes :) However, i would rather spend £50 on other things... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tartridge Posted May 8, 2005 Report Share Posted May 8, 2005 www.parktool.com, suprisingly. All of those tool kits are pretty poor. Buy something that'll last. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
picki Posted May 8, 2005 Report Share Posted May 8, 2005 hammer, multi too, ajustable spanner, spoke key, chain whip, casette thyingy, chain splitter, bb tool should be less than £50 for even park ones :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corish Posted May 8, 2005 Report Share Posted May 8, 2005 I've got the same box, tools etc exact same, but mine was £19.99 I don't know where from, my mum got me it one day for no reason. I think you shouldn't get it, Because you can get the tools you need for maybe less seperatley unless your wanting the majority of the tools in there.. its upto you but I wouldnt pay that much for something like it unless I'm going to use all the tools. corish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
