What's in Seth's Toolbox?

[@parktool]

Thanks for the shoutout, Seth!

[@kevinlafon]

I just subscribed because of this video. Looking forward watching all the content. ;)

[@harmangrewal5282]

how many bikes you have 😊

[@SethsBikeHacks]

Just full disclosure: This video is not an endorsement for any tool company. I know there are a lot of logos in the video, but they're printed all over the tools so there's really no avoiding that. Hopefully someday tool companies WILL pay me to do this so I can quit working and make videos for you guys all day!

[@lbzomb6651]

i like park tool. we have them almost exclusivly at our shop

[@SethsBikeHacks]

Yeah, I've always used Park. For the money you really can't beat it since they sell so many specialty tools in sets.

[@jessebittermann5530]

I LOVE YOU

[@huntermlmfao2778]

that end tho

[@spencermurray4378]

+hunter m LMFAO right that was so funny

[@bkxc]

There's a correct tool for every job, but my dad taught us to cut corners and use brute force. It's the Kennedy way.

[@a100267]

Yeah, and the correct tool is always in your other tool box you don't have with you :)

Hmm.. would seth recommend tho?

Thanks for going the extra mile and linking the tools in the description! It's stuff like that that makes your channel the best.

dude this channel is on its way to big things. keep doin what ur doin

[@benjaminvasey8441]

Hearing that auto mechanic comment, it’s true. A large enough space for the car, room on all four sides to walk around, huge tool box for multiple types of fasteners, cutters, pry bars the list goes on and on. I need a full set of cabinets to house everything I need and I still don’t have everything to do all jobs

[@sjf1981]

I recently started a mobile bike repair in the philly area. Super fun and I've been slammed. These vids are a huge help to dial in every thing I need. It's hard to remember every thing you need

[@briandonovan6546]

that humbling moment when you try to push your way through a gate that opens outward haha. great stuff, man.

[@bdpersha]

I have to strongly agree with you on that park three way allen wrench. my favorite tool

[@efxnoise]

great video, gave me some new things to pick up 1 thing that's always in my toolbox is a section of old inner tube and a hole puncher. I cut small shapes the size of a dime and punch a hole through it(usually a double layer) The hole is for a bolt to slide through and I use these to pad metal on metal contact points...]for example, the struts on a rear rack bolted to the rear dropouts.or the fender support screws.

[@michellemiller6589]

Awesome video as always Congrats dude you're almost to 100,000

[@jamescardona9412]

i love his vids i can watch them all day

[@awesomevideos32]

Almost at 100,000 subs! Early congrats! Also you're my favorite bike youtuber and I love each of your videos! Keep it up!

[@dsb1829]

Cool vid. Only things I have that are unique; -the park chainline checker (CLG). It is nice when doing odd crank and wheel combinations, or single speeds. -old spoke sharpened to a point to open up cable housing liners once trimmed -zip tie tool, tightens and cuts at once and trims way more flush than pliers -adapters for the truing stand for various thru axles Otherwise I think your kit is spot on. And I am also have a decade wrenching in shops as a kid, then working for parts as a second job once I grew up.

[@braullotolentino27]

I like the way you review and share your knowledge and skills I always watch your new videos. Keep it up. - Don from Sydney Australia.

[@thedude7722]

The best video for bike tools right here, thanks for sharing!

[@DrunkJapanese]

It's thanks to your videos that I found that fish/luggage scale. I've been eyeballing Park's hanging scale for months, but have a hard time justifying paying 65 dollars. I got this scale and it's great. I paid around 18 for, but at less than 1/3 the price of the Park Tool one, it's great.

[@rideforchristmtb4life174]

I have officially watched all of your videos

[@ledcessna158]

My derailleur alignment tool is my favorite tool.

[@ericr7162]

Now Ik what I need to work on my bike on the go, thanks Seth!

[@Megashovelman]

Amazing Tool Box for various work on various bikes.

[@MikeinCC]

Yea, Park stuff makes undoubtedly the best bike tools IMO. I have the same cable cutter you have (which isn't Park) but it cuts shifter and brake hydraulic very well. Working on your bike with the proper tools sometimes separates victory from defeat.

[@riggermortisfpv526]

Good kit, mine has grown into my business and spans the entire range from simple socket sets to my newest toy my Park BFS-1 BB facing kit. The jewel of my collection is a tool I rarely use these days and thats my old Raleigh cotter pin press.

[@aarliann]

Thanks for the upload Seth!

[@lillee4207]

I use an S&M ride bmx tool wrap, with 15mm and 3/4 sockets, some rockbros multi tool, leatherman scissor multi tool, a valve wrench, a circular spoke wrench, patches, rubber cement, a rubber scraper, an extension for ratchet, a ratchet, a bone shaped multi wrench, 2 band aids, a sunlite chain breaker, and dat it

[@ilikerealflight]

those three ways are awesome. My family has one except that it has ball points and it's so sturdy and ergonomic it's crazy

[@GothicDragonX]

I recently started biking for commute, as for tools I just have a CrankBros Multi tool (17-Function), Vibrelli Presta & Schrader pump for tires/tyres , and Rockshox air pump (suspension pump). I don't plan on doing full biking mod or configurations other than the basic maintenance keeping, other than that head to the local bike shop and let them have fun tuning things up according to my preference/size.

[@alexn5159]

I'm a neat freak, and haven't found a way to neatly organize my tools in a efficient package. I'm also thinking about investing in a another set of dedicated socket and wrenches just for the bikes. Instead of on loading and off loading every time I go for a trip.

[@cakelesscoder9562]

those pedros levers are indestructible! i've used the same pair at the shop i work at since I started and they never even flex!

[@Woo-Cash-80]

One of my favourite Youber. Great videos, very good articulation/diction (quality of speaking). A lot of tools. I don't have so many. Last time I've bought chain gauge with 4 dimension (20, 50, 75 and 100). I would like to have bike stand like yours, but I have not enough place for it. When I'm watching your videos I always think about buying BMX or trial bike. When I was young (late 80ties) I had one BMX polish brand ROMET. Very heavy machine. My dream was american real BMX like GT or other bike. The problem is that I'm a very entry level rider and there is a lot of hard work on my bike trick's way.

[@Woo-Cash-80]

[@pillo1000]

I really like how Seths videos start! :)

[@DoWorkChopper]

I have almost all the tools you listed and then some other ones. For some reason I was stubborn and refused to buy specific cable and housing cutters for the longest time and used regular cable snips, or whatever you want to call them. I was constantly poking myself with frayed cables and trying to open housing with a needle. I finally broke down and bought some housing cutters and now I can't stop cutting shit. I bought 100 yards of housing and just keep clipping it in 1" increments. Not really, but if you don't have a pair get some!

[@DadDoingStuff]

I didn't see any picks, like dental pick style. Super useful for anything with an o-ring. Cost almost nothing for a set at Home Depot or you can sharpen an old spoke to make a DIY version, use cable housing for the handle. Good call on the tubing cutter, way better than a hack saw!

[@PauloMesaros]

Shouts out Park Tool and Calvin... two years later hangs out with them at Park Tool! So crazy to see how your channel has grown Seth!

[@unogazzy84]

1:53 Not to mention... Cuts straight too. Great video :)

[@karlriemer8205]

Cone wrenches. Also, while I love the Park triad allen keys, I also love an old HKC quad hex wrench. I use their triad hex wrench more often, but the 8-9-10-11 quad is big and spins like a lugnut wrench. Start a nut, flick a side arm and swoooop it's snug; flick it anticlockwise and swoooop it's off. When there's room to do that, it's very satisfying.

[@maxlambert6587]

he always put the best clips at the end

[@hishaam6915]

Was waiting for that particuclar video !!!!!!! As always great content and that last part😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@steamerjohn9212]

Two tools I couldn't live without when it comes to cleaning my bike are, the Park dummy hub and Pedro's chain pig.

[@SethsBikeHacks]

I like the way you're thinking

[@riggermortisfpv526]

How about a trip back in time....Seth's Bike Hacks 101 the Clunker (Roots of MTB) ?

[@digitalrailroader]

perhaps buying another Walgoose (or retrieve the Original Walgoose from wherever you sent it to) and seeing if it can be turned into a decent bike with quality parts. it can be for those people who's ONLY option is a Department store bike because either they can't afford a name brand bike (ive seen in my area on Craigslist where a name brand used bike pretty much goes from $300-$1500), or if there are no IBSs in the area (such is my case, the Nearest IBSs to me is an Hour's Drive north or east, and yet the nearest bike trail to me is only a 20 minute drive east)

[@lukewarm3888]

I got a Pedro tool kit. It can do everything I need it to. I recommend it more than a park tool kit.

[@grimmodemorte1705]

I love each one your videos 😁

[@zFLAVEz]

I like to stick the cassette tool in a vice and using the wheel for leverage. makes removing cassettes much easier.

[@LvcianoN]

i also have a little tool box just for bike tools that I carry around, about same size as yours and about the same tools. I place bike related stickers on it!

[@SethsBikeHacks]

I need to up my sticker game!

[@LvcianoN]

+Seth's Bike Hacks I just started, about 5 stickers so far, when i print some of my logo ill send you some.

[@DeviousWashere2]

Y wrenches or 3 way he's wrenches are the greatest. I work at a shop and it's the one tool everyone has in their back pocket at all times

[@jameszanghi3564]

Great video as usual!

[@Guntar131]

Zip ties, chain breaker, electrical tape, valve core remover, two of each cone wrench and some grease.

[@MrCyclee]

Fucking thanks for that park tool part, I really need to know of them. This is by far the best bicycle channel on youtube.

[@williamhayes215]

My stash of spare old components and way more wrenches than I will ever need

[@ThinkyPain]

Check out the Knipex Pliers Wrench. Kinda spendy, but can take the place of dozens of sockets and box wrenches. They look like a pair of channel lock pliers, but without teeth and the jaws always stay parallel to each other. I've used the same pair on bolts from 5mm to 1.5". Puts crescent wrenches to (more) shame.

[@MacFilmsmain]

Those tools are lit

[@luckyducky2931]

hey man you are a pretty good youtuber your channel is fun and i really enjoy watching your videos. I hope you hit 1 mil subs and more graet job keep going that way. Sry for poor english not my native language.

Hey Seth! My name is Ryan, I'm 14 and I work at Retro City Cycles in Orlando. I have been subscribed for awhile and I love the content! I have been wanted to get some Tools for awhile, and it looks like Park Tool is the best option.I heard you come by sometimes and I would love to meet you at the shop. Great video today!.Please reply back at your convinence. Thanks

[@SethsBikeHacks]

I haven't been through Orlando in a while, but when I do I'll try to swing through some shops!

[@ryanthompson2314]

Cool I appreciate it.

[@MAGAIVER]

That shop is awesome, I had the pleasure of buying a bike there back in 2011. Unfortunately the bike got destroyed in a collision with a pickup truck. And as I am from Brazil it`s kinda hard to swing by and get another bike.

[@lastland6939]

When he started I was waiting for 'this video was sponsored by square space'

[@Soundafek]

My tool box is very similar except i don't own any tools for geared bikes i only ride SS bikes. I have a large hex key set, several adjustable wrenchs and socket sets screw drivers lockring and spanners for adjusting bottom brackets headset wrenches. I've turned my garage into a mini bike shop with extra bike parts and tools i've accumulated over the years to service my own bikes.

[@gavinthenav6594]

I LOVE TRI HEX WRENCHES

[@d.waxler8518]

you're all good!!

[@recklessyuki]

Thanks for this! I'm looking at ditching the local bike shop and doing the work myself. I was unsure what tools I need because I see a lot of tool kits on amazon, but wasn't sure how "complete" those sets were.

[@MadMentleMan]

your bike is so nice

[@iceisnice61]

Excellent! . Really like your style. Subscribed.

[@MotoJMoore]

watching all vids

[@illinoisfishing7211]

awesome video

[@FeralEngineer]

Interesting, that's almost exactly the same tool set I use besides I prefer small head-style crank pullers and BB wrenches that can be turned with a usual adjustable wrench. BTW, there is a good substitute for a dynamometric wrench - just insert the fishing scales' screw into the hole on the ratchet handle, measure the distance between the axis and the hole, calculate the resulting torque and make a conversion table of the most used ones. Then, apply the ratchet to the bolt, hold the scale perpendicular to the ratchet handle and pull the fishing scales till you see the desired value listed in the table. Besides that I use an Owerhaul set of a ratchet, screwdriver, extenders and angle-access inserts that can be fit together in any way (my favorite one is a ratchet->screwdriver->hex/torx which is quite universal in terms of tightening effort control and the degree of achievable maximum power for the stuck bolts) with a set of hex, torx and bolt heads.

[@Rinyotsu]

Too be fair, if we're considering hand tools, not specialty tools, then I have all the tools I need to repair my engine in a bag about the size of that box which I found out the hard way last June when the new engine I got blew a head gasket that wasn't covered by a warranty since the car is a 2005 and the engine came from a 2002. Glad I had the v6 which is easier than the I4 that I could've had.

[@jakefarmer7816]

i have a cross bar in mine. i bmx so putting pegs on is made easy because it has a 17 and 19 on it

[@jaimybanaan7999]

nice vid seth

[@iainthavinthat]

I remember that I got the idea of getting a toolbox from you of another video, I don't know why I didn't thought on it before. Now I have a Stanley toolbox and thinking on buying a plastic box for other shit like mineral oil, random parts, etc.

[@SethsBikeHacks]

For year all my crap was just laying around everywhere! The toolbox is a game changer. For my home improvement tools I actually use a Craftsman canvas bag, which is nice for carrying around the house and leaving hammers and stuff sticking out of it.
