How to choose a bike tool kit

A tool kit puts everything you need to service your bike in one organised box - cheaper and tidier than buying tools piecemeal. Park Tool and Feedback Sports are the go-to names for home and pro mechanics alike, and both make kits to suit every level. Match the kit to how much you plan to do yourself.

Pick your level

Starter / on-the-road

A compact kit like the Park Tool Essential Tool Kit covers tyre levers, hex keys and the basic adjustments every rider should be able to do - ideal for keeping in the car or taking to races.

Home mechanic

The Park Tool SK-4 Home Mechanic Starter Kit adds chain, cassette and bottom-bracket tools for regular servicing - a solid foundation you can build on as your skills grow.

Advanced / pro

The Park Tool AK-5 Advanced Mechanic Kit and PK-5 Professional Kit handle full drivetrain and workshop-level repairs. Feedback Sports pro kits pack a full workshop into a well-organised case built for travel.

What to look for

Check the kit suits your bike's standards (disc vs rim brakes, your bottom bracket and cassette type). Prioritise a torque wrench if you run carbon components - correct torque prevents cracked parts, and both Park Tool and Feedback Sports make torque tools to suit home mechanics. A sturdy case keeps everything organised and rust-free.
