Like a lot of riders, I bought a “complete” bike tool kit when I first started mountain biking. But I was quickly disappointed; the tools were low quality, and not only that, I didn’t need half of them. And the ones I did need — like a pair of quality cable cutters — weren’t included.
If you’re looking to add to your kit, or upgrade a few of the tools, check out the tools that are on sale below. At these discounted prices, they’ll pay for themselves even quicker!
