I like all the ones I have, which are the pin spanner, adjustable cup wrench, master link pliers, the valve core tool and the bottom bracket tool. I bought the valve core tool to tighten down some Schwalbe valve cores on inner tubes with slow leaks, and it works very well for that. The bottom

Thanks all for your replies. From the number of responses, it seems not many have tried them...but they seem to be worth it for a home mechanic. @Russell - I once went to the KC store and now my mobile is riddled with ads of these fancier tools 﫠 BTW Soma has a 30% sale going on if anyone is

Not at all fixated on the branding, just looking for tools in general. I like when there is limited choice and the shop sells only what they trust (analog, riv..) so I wanted to get some feedback on the tools. On Fri, 15 Mar, 2024, 8:40 pm Bill Lindsay, wrote: > Most people consider the Mike

Most people consider the Mike Plumpatire floor pump to be a part of the Hobson Zingo program. If you require explicit HZ branding on each item, the MP pump doesn't qualify. https://www.rivbike.com/products/mike-plumpatire-floor-pump Bill Lindsay El Cerrito, CA On Friday, March 15, 2024 at
