Free is cheap!

Looks like an OK kit to keep in an emergency bag.

That's what I'm thinking.

kobalt makes okay tools.
It's hard to mess up basic hand tools like that though haha

 

[VonYinzer]

Kobalt stuff isn't bad at all. No Snap-On but it'll last ya.

Thanks!
The drivers and bits/inserts were my chief concern, pliers and dikes are pretty foolproof. :

 

[JustinLonghorn]

Kobalt used to be made by the same company as snap-on, but are now made in china/Taiwan.

 

[Mr.E]

I've actually bought several packs of their new redesigned wrenches and sockets. They are good. But I'm still sceptical of their ratchets.

 

[Toast]

I picked up a set of spokes ;D, I told myself that if I found a set that was well priced I would buy it them.

Goodbye cruiser mags!

Watch this space.

If all goes according to plan I will be picking this up after work.

...if not I'll be drilling my rotors.
Either way is a win.

Nice Hoosier. I just got a call the Dad in law has procured the plywood for my bike table. that one would be better but the wood one will beat lying on the floor.

 

[peteGSX]

Seriously envious HD! I'd love a bench but with two cars in the two car garage I've got nowhere I can put it...


Maritime, yep definitely! I hate trying to get to anything down low on the bike now... my knees are gettin' a little old for all that squatting and kneeling...

 

[crazypj]

You put cars incthe garage?

 

[teazer]

+1 PJ.

WFT is that about.

Our cars have never seen the inside of the shop (aka garage).

 

[Big R]

Ha! My wife says the only time she wants to park her car in the garage is in the winter - so she doesn't have to scrape ice and snow off of it.

But seriously Pete......what's your excuse?

 

[dewjantim]

I don't even have a garage.......my shop is full of bikes, my mother-in-law's big garage is full of bikes, one bike at a friend's shop, one at the dealership (he lets me keep it there), and my Cobra Mustang parked in my wife's aunt's garage. My 93' Ford Ranger, purchased for a grand four years ago, with salvage title and close to 100000 miles is my main ride. It has been all over the east coast picking up bikes and the second best vehicle I have ever owned (#1 was Porsche 944). I love it !!!

2 hour road trip and 3 Guiness later it's in the shop! ;D

 

[Rich Ard]

Right on Hoosier! If my wife really loves me, your garage and mine will match post-Xmas...

 

[sasquach]

Thats the best 300 I ever spent on my bikes

 

[DesmoBro]

Made Not Bought....she's a one off Birdhouse/ feeder

 

[HerrDeacon]

Nice one Hoosier, you're going to love it. Makes a big difference to working on them, especially the older you get
