4.0 out of 5 stars A toolkit that can be trusted
I would say that the quality may not be the best but it is enough to do a weekly maintenance on your bike. I have used this toolkit for a couple of months now and so far the strength is still there. I don't regret buying this because most of the tools I needed when I restored my bike is here. I was hesitant to buy this toolkit at first because of the comments from other...

3.0 out of 5 stars Questionable quality
It's a decent set as far as the contents are concerned. However, the chain tool broke during my first use. So, the durability is questionable. It's nice to have a case, but not every tool stays in their home location, they seem to pop out easily.
Haven't used every single toll in this set yet. It's an ok set for beginner home bicycle mechanic. If you want more...

Haven't used every single toll in this set yet. It's an ok set for beginner home bicycle mechanic. If you want more life out of your tools, go with the Park Tool or a similar reputable brand (be ready to spend 3-4 times more $).

4.0 out of 5 stars A toolkit that can be trusted, February 9, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Avenir Home Mechanic's Tool Kit (Sports)
I would say that the quality may not be the best but it is enough to do a weekly maintenance on your bike. I have used this toolkit for a couple of months now and so far the strength is still there. I don't regret buying this because most of the tools I needed when I restored my bike is here. I was hesitant to buy this toolkit at first because of the comments from other users but then I pushed through with the purchase which was one of the best decisions I did because the toolkit never failed me. I will definitely recommend this to anyone who is into DIY because this will help you with most maintenance that you need on your bike.

4.0 out of 5 stars Decent Bicycle repair tool kit...for the money, October 22, 2010
By

This review is from: Avenir Home Mechanic's Tool Kit (Sports)
If you are a hobby or do-it-yourself bicycle repair enthusiast with a limited budget this is the tool kit for you. The tools are functional and will get the job done but they are not what I would consider quality tools. I would definitely suggest that this be a supporting tool set to use in addition to a set of mechanics wrenches. Go with Park Tools if you have the cash or plan on using them for more than the occasional rebuild...otherwise these tools will get you by.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty Good...For the most part, May 1, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Avenir Home Mechanic's Tool Kit (Sports)
This tool kit worked great, has a bunch of tools, and allowed me to completely disassemble my bicycles. The Casette/Bottom Bracket tools were especially useful. The chain tool, however, is absolutely atrocious. It broke on my second use, as one of the threads on the inside of the tool managed to break, rendering it useless. Avenir Chain Tool

Other than that one faulty tool, the kit was a pretty good purchase.

1.0 out of 5 stars Imitaion kit, July 27, 2011
This review is from: Avenir Home Mechanic's Tool Kit (Sports)
This kit has most of the tools a home mechanic might need. The problem is that these tools aren't made with accuracy to industry measurements. The splines on the free wheel removal tool don't match up with any of the free wheels that it should. The Crank removal tool broke the first time I used it. Wrench opening measurements are inaccurate causing a loose fit which chews up the nut or bolt head you're trying to tighten down or loosen. Don't waste your time with this cheap box of poor quality imitation crap. Find a reputable brand instead.

5.0 out of 5 stars bike tool set, November 24, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Avenir Home Mechanic's Tool Kit (Sports)
I love this set. Has lots of specialty tools: chain link remover, cone wrenches, bottom bracket tools....

It cost me 50 dollars, and I am happy to have paid it. Buy this set first, BEFORE you buy individual tools!

I received this as a gift. The quality is great. Looks like the kit includes just about everything (and more) that the home bicycle repair enthusiast would ever need. Highly recommended.

This review is from: Avenir Home Mechanic's Tool Kit (Sports)
I wanted a cheap tool set i could us to work on my bike while I was deployed to Afghanistan. After reading the reviews on this set I didn't expect to much from the set...but as soon i got it I put it to work and it has not let me down. I originally planned on selling the kit or passing it on to some one else but it will defiantly be coming home with me...oh yeah and the shipping to my APO address was extremely quick.

Not professional grade but, a good tool set for the average do it yourself home repair person. Got exactly what I expected for a kit well under one hundred dollars.

5.0 out of 5 stars Keeps bikes on the road., February 25, 2012
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Avenir Home Mechanic's Tool Kit (Sports)
Includes most of the tools I have needed to keep two bikes on the road for over 13,000 miles. If you have bikes, and had work performed at a shop, you know how expensive it can get. This product can save you a lot of money on maintenance and repair. Good value for this price, with free shipping. I would recommend this product to others.
