A good starter set for someone, and has lifetime warranty.

I have this set, decent kit and can do most jobs on the bike with it!

I've got this and love it, only thing to be aware of is some of the anti-tamper torx in the red box, in my kit at least, had the centre holes manufactured off-centre.

Take them back then?

Was about to say it didn't look much of a bargain!

The kits available have changed but I think I bought the equivalent of (http://www.machinemart.co.uk/shop/product/details/pro123-55pce-38in-saemetric-socket-set) that and a set of imperial & metric spanners when I first started with bikes and still use it and can't say my tool kit's extended toooo much more than that


(apart from a torque wrench and a set of big sockets for the bigger stuff when I had to semi/mostly rebuild a bike - and the odd specialist servicing/engine opening tool.)

Just seen a TV advert for Halford's sale now on, with an extra 10% off for online orders before midnight Chrissy day. Maybe worth checking out?

Or could go to Machine Mart and buy all the tools you'd ever need for £150

Even cheaper if you have a discount code or a mate with one for the offer over christmas
