An electric screwdriver has to be one of the best tool purchases I've ever made! I tend to spend hours at a time working on my car or bicycle. With so many repetitive turning motions, I started to develope carpal tunnel syndrome. I got an electric screwdriver from harbor freight on sale for like $5, and it has been a lifesaver for my hands! Its small size and light weight make it very maneuverable and easy to use. It is often times straight up faster than working by hand. Highly recommend everyone get one even if its just a cheap one from harbor freight! (Sidenote, there are socket adapter bits that let you turn nuts and bolts too)

@vidiia 3 года назад

My favourite non-essential bike tool is the stub screwdriver - gives you so much more control when adjusting V-brake tension screws, shifter limit screws, any finicky little screws really. The short length means they're easy to seat and when you press down real hard you don't risk slipping/twisting the head out and stripping the screw. Lifesaver.

@alanmartinezrodriguez884 3 года назад

Mine is a mechanical multi bit screwdriver that has every bit you'll ever need in small comparment in the handle !! Useful, efficient, and surprisingly cheap!

@RickyHolton 3 года назад

Love everything Knipex makes, I don’t have a lot to compare to but their Wire rope cutter is fantastic for cables/housing. The other bigtime winner is the Cannellock WideAzz wrench (8”). A quality adjustable wrench is just so handy. The jaws aren’t too thick too so it’s more useful than a lot of other wide mouthed wrenches.

My favorite tools: 3rd hand, 4th hand and BB tap/thread chaser set. This last one I use every time I service or replace a bottom bracket; it makes reinstallation foolproof. A close 4th is my spoke cutter/threader. When I build my own wheels I buy uncut or long spokes.

A decade ago if someone told me that I'd enjoy watching a montage of product reviews this much, I wouldn't have believed the person at all. I mean I remember getting pissed at product advertisements on TV. I may not probably end up using any of the tools but just the sheer craftsmanship in editing the video and how Seth describes his relationship with the tools make these videos quality content. By itself a plastic mallet means nothing in fact we see tools like these on Amazon and think what the heck does this even do, Seth makes the tools living-breathing characters. I really enjoy these videos. Please keep up the good work.

Pedro's!!! Pedros is king, i had them and everywhere i go people adored them, when someone got a flat and i gave them my Pedros (always have them with a co2 and a tube strapped to the bike) i basically became the MTB version of Jesus, even when a pro that i was hanging around with during at the megavalanche had to change a tire and he was just using cush core for maybe the first time, i pulled out those puppies and he literally screamed in joy, he lost his while travelling and could not find a replacement and they were to only tire levers he had never broken.

A good set of flare nut wrenches are worth the cost. I owned many brands that were never quite good enough before I finally threw budget out the window and bought a set of Snap-on flare nut wrenches. Pure joy when I need to use them. My general rule with tools is you can get away with "cheap" when precision isn't critical. But when the precision of manufacture is important, pony up for the good stuff.
