Order bike tools online at bike store velondo.com

You don't always want to take your bike to the bike repair shop for every little breakdown and flat tire? You want to maintain, service and repair your bike yourself? Then you need a suitable tool set or have to assemble appropriate tools yourself. To be able to perform maintenance and repair work on your bike, you also need enough space. The lighting should also be right.

A repair stand prevents annoying crawling around and brings the wheel at eye level

So that you do not always have to crawl around or kneel on the floor when repairing your bike, you should get a repair stand. Then you have your bike at eye level and the repair goes much more quickly from the hand.

When using the tools, you should make sure that you always proceed carefully when tightening. Bolts and nuts should be tightened firmly, but not slammed shut or completely overtightened. There are special torque wrenches that can accurately read the strength of the tightening force. You can refer to your bike's owner's manual for the manufacturer's recommended tightening torques.

cheap tool lures with the price, but does not prove itself in everyday life

Never buy cheap tools from discount stores. You will have no joy with it. Cheap tools wear out faster, bend and in the worst case even cause damage to your bike

.

With small additions, the basic tool quickly becomes an extensive tool assortment

You will find your basic tools already in your normal home toolbox: Hammer, screwdriver, Phillips head, combination pliers, pipe wrenches, screwdrivers, etc.

Add a set of open-end wrenches to this normal tool inventory. The 15er open-end wrench is suitable for fixing the pedals or for tensioning the chain on bolted rear axles. You will need the 8, 9 and 10 mm open-end wrenches if you want to tighten or fix the screws on your luggage rack, lamp or mudguards.A set of Allen wrenches between 2 and 10 mm thick should also not be missing from any toolbox. Use the long end of the Allen wrench if you have little space, for example. This is the case when mounting a bottle cage on the bike frame. Use the short part for tightening bolts.Be sure to get a mini tool for on the go. You can easily store it in a saddlebag and on rides it will provide you with great assistance. Another tool that should not be missing is a needle nose pliers. They do a good job when you need to tighten or readjust cables. The pliers should be as narrow as possible so that they can be used in tight places. The jaw surfaces should be clean and free of grease.Since shift and brake cables need to be renewed, shortened or adjusted from time to time, you should also get a Bowden cable cutter. The inside of this tool is also suitable for attaching cable end caps to brake cables to protect the latter from fraying.For repairs to the chain, bottom bracket and bicycle sprocket, you need the following tools: crank puller, crank wrench, chain riveter, chain whip or cassette puller.

Whether investing in special tools makes sense for you depends on your skills as a "screwdriver" and the budget you are inclined to spend. Some special tools, such as tools for loosening the sprocket set, go so really in the money and are more suitable for a specialist workshop.

Fixed places avoid constant searching

Quite important for screwing on the wheel is the following: Order is half the battle. Nothing is more annoying than the constant search for the appropriate tool. So determine an exact place for each tool and put it there again after each operation.

The order in which you disassemble is important for later reassembly

Memorize the exact sequence of parts when disassembling even when repairing and maintaining your bike. After all, you don't want to find at the end of the repair that you still have a few bolts left, but don't even know where they belong anymore. And keep your tools clean and dry. Then you will also enjoy it for a long time.
