I inquired about buying a bike stand at my local shop when I brought my fork in for a star nut today. I really should just get one. Working on a DIY ebike MTB which in testing so far has been the best bike I have ever rode. Gary Fisher 2007 donor bike. 1500w rear hub motor. The stand and a few other tools from this vid will be worth it just for cables, brakes & tires.

I absolutely LOVE my ratcheting mini screw driver from Milwaukee Tool. Have used it on my bike, motorcycle, car, truck and inside the house on multiple occasions
My favorite is the park derailleur hanger straightener because i am so relieved to have it every time and its also saved me about 200 dollars so far
Wera hex keys are my favourite. Great for getting out bolt without rounding them and the colours make it easy to see where you've chucked the one you need quickly.
I know you don't always need high end tools but damn when you get a really well built one (the scissors for example) it just makes a world of difference

On the off chance that you see this, thanks so much for donating the funds from the Orange P7 to the Bogue Chitto trails. I just got back from riding them, and it's easily the best trail system in south Louisiana. We don't have a lot of trails here, so being able to ride well planned trails in an area that actually has sizable hills is great.
My friend has a little garage shop and he said the greasy toothbrush is blowing his mind. Thanks Seth

I have automotive flare nut spanners, I probably only use them once a year, but really glad I have them when I do.
My favourite non-essential bike tool is the stub screwdriver - gives you so much more control when adjusting V-brake tension screws, shifter limit screws, any finicky little screws really. The short length means they're easy to seat and when you press down real hard you don't risk slipping/twisting the head out and stripping the screw. Lifesaver.

An electric screwdriver has to be one of the best tool purchases I've ever made! I tend to spend hours at a time working on my car or bicycle. With so many repetitive turning motions, I started to develope carpal tunnel syndrome. I got an electric screwdriver from harbor freight on sale for like $5, and it has been a lifesaver for my hands! Its small size and light weight make it very maneuverable and easy to use. It is often times straight up faster than working by hand. Highly recommend everyone get one even if its just a cheap one from harbor freight! (Sidenote, there are socket adapter bits that let you turn nuts and bolts too)
I am a hydraulic mechanic and i use a pick so much that i keep it in my pocket all day. For our shop Snap on is actually the cheapest option because we would need a new one every month
6" crescent wrench is probably one of my favorite tools to use. It is small enough to use for most projects , but still big enough to take off a set of rims
Love everything Knipex makes, I don’t have a lot to compare to but their Wire rope cutter is fantastic for cables/housing. The other bigtime winner is the Cannellock WideAzz wrench (8”). A quality adjustable wrench is just so handy. The jaws aren’t too thick too so it’s more useful than a lot of other wide mouthed wrenches.
Mine is a mechanical multi bit screwdriver that has every bit you'll ever need in small comparment in the handle !! Useful, efficient, and surprisingly cheap!
Hello to all.... from Nottingham England 🏴 I love using a tool..... And that tool is me 🤣
The best feeling in the world is using a brand new premium set of scissors, that is the high I am always chasing in my life.

everybody that is a Seth fan is just so nice and caring thank you everybody for letting him have a youtube channel as a job.
Love your videos, I’ve been watching for years and started out on Mtn Bikes, in the last year I’ve realized my love for riding recumbent trikes and it’s amazing how many tips and tricks work in that hobby also 👍
Whatever tool gets me out on the trail is my favorite tool.
Just love this channel😍
I love using that park tool tork wrench the one that’s a T and you can adjust to newton meters so fun to use.
I love these types of videos 👌
Loving the Pedro's tyre levers. Had mine for decades now and still going strong. My favourite tool is my Dremel 3000, useful for all sorts of jobs, drilling out frame stops to run full cable housing from shifter to mech, cleaning up rusty looking bolts, deburring stuff, cutting hydraulic hoses cleanly and accurately etc.. And probably second is my bench vice.
My favorite tool is a set of Knipex needle nose pliers. I keep them in my nightstand I use them so mush
I think Seth is the most entertaining video creator that I've ever watched
I really prefer to never have to use it, but man is a derailleur hanger adjustment tool ever satisfying to use when it does come out

What people forget about with Snap-on tools is that you aren't just buying the tool, you are buying the right to that tool for the rest of your life. This means that if you buy a pick from them at age 15 and break it at age 90, they will give you another one for free!
