SIX OF THE BEST

We test out some of the best basic bike toolkits, to cover your car park and shed tinkering needs

SO GOOD… The Port-A-Shop is more of a (well-presented) multi-tool expansion kit than the portable workshop its name suggests. It provides a range of tools that should cover most car park bike-tinkering needs. The bulk of them are contained within three high-quality multi-tools. There’s a wide range of Allen and Torx wrenches, and the inclusion of traditional and glueless patch kits is a nice touch. NO GOOD… The range of tools falls short of other kits on test if you’re looking to fully assemble a bike. A separate spoke key would be easier to use than the one integrated into the chain tool.
