I have no doubt these L-wrenches (hex) will last a dozen lifetimes. They are substantial and the ball end is great for getting into areas that might be a little off angle. The plating protects the wrenches from rust and I'm certain will never lose its luster. A nice solid set.

Very nice - works better than the $35 set my bike shop tried to sell me.

I'm really glad I got the long arm set. I keep in motorcycle tool pouch for any quick adjustments needed. Great set with most common sizes for metric bike.

Bought these for my motorcycle, great wrenches, the ball end really helps in getting into some of the odd places that you have to get to when working on a bike. Also the quality of these wrenches seems to be top knoch.

I LOVE these allen wrenches. I use them for all sorts of things, but mainly to work on guitars & music equipment. They are very well made, and the ball ends are a nice touch and work well. After almost a year of use they still look brand new.

If you're trying to decide between this and the 15 piece set, the 9 piece is plenty for cyclists. I checked my 10 year old cheapies (probably not even CR-V). The sizes worn the most were 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 5 & 6 mm (out of a 20 piece metric/sae set). The sizes <4mm don't get much use but the small surface area means cheapies fail rapidly. I used the 8 & 10 mm a few times but presumably the large size means cheapies are quite adequate. Regardless, the 9 piece set is ample.

I won't question bondhus claims to be the strongest. They also state the gold finish is better than chrome for rust resist. They certainly look the business and the carry rack works very well. I should have bought these years ago!
