Professional Bike Tool Kits – For the Serious Bike Mechanic

Complete Bike Tool Kits Over $100

These tool kits are for the serious or professional biker or bike mechanic. Except number 6, these tool kits all belong in your garage or your bike workshop. These are what you rely on to get the job done, day in and day out.

Number 6 is for those of you who are supporting your team at an event or if you are biking long distances and need a great set to work on the bike when necessary.

Both Bikehand and Park are known for good quality professional tools, but like anything else you need to be sure of what you need before you buy it. All of these kits have full listings of the tools on the sales page.

Let’s talk about the differences in the seller for both brands of professional bike tools. We have Trail This out of Mount Horeb, Wisconsin and we have Cycling Deal USA out of Pomona, California. Both sellers are based in the USA.

Trail This offers Park professional bike tools and Cycling Deal USA offers BIKE HAND pro bike tools.

Park Tool has been in the bike business since 1963. They have over 500 tools that they produce and are making new tools every year. Park Tool is well-known in the bike dealer community for its quality in tools and responsiveness for orders. Park Tool is based out of Minnesota, USA.

For repair help while using Park Tool tools, simply go to the Park Tool Repair Help page. There you can do a search or filter by a bike part topic.

BIKE HAND started in 1988 and is located in Changhua, Taiwan. You can view their E-catalog on BIKEHAND website; however, it is slow to respond and you’ll probably see what you need on Amazon without the wait.

Which is better? Park Tool or BIKE HAND?

I believe it’s a matter of Quality versus Price. You can buy much more from BIKE HAND at a lower cost than you can from Park Tool. However, if you rely on bike tools to do your job or if you spend a lot of time working on your bike because it is your main hobby, then you will probably go where the quality is and not worry about the price.

On the other hand, if you are like me and ride every so often or prefer to have someone else fix your bike then what are you doing on this page? Hahaha! No, really! You should take a look at Emergency Bike Repair Kits because that is all you and I will ever need.
