Well I contacted you about 8 years ago requesting a catalogue, no response, Park Tool on the other hand sent me one all the way from America........ Guess which tools I've spent my money on?
They have a full catalogue on their website, I'm not sure why you would need one personally sent to you. Personally I think many of Unior's tools are simply better quality than Park, and are usually priced better. I mean, Park charges $80 for a set of washers on a 11/8" threaded rod! I will say Unior's repair stands are ridiculous though, $300 on a repair stand that has questionable quality?
Well these are some of the finest tools available for cyclists. I do not understand people who spend money on expensive bikes, and yet choose cheap hardware store non branded poorly made tools. Good tools last a lifetime, and for intelligent people, a no brainier investment
Yeah, it's way over priced for what's in it. Comes down to like 20 dollars per tool. Which would be fine if it wasnt 20 dollars for tweezers and a pick. You could build your own set for what you work on for far less money. Seriously dont understand who would spend a grand on a tool set that could be had from a hardware store mostly for half the price.
@@dsdf_fdp1858 Have you ever tried Unior's pliers? I'm interested in how good they are vs. Knipex. Knipex is about the same price or $5-$10 more, so I'd be interested in seeing the difference in quality between the two. Imo I think Unior is better than Park most of the time, the prices are comparable and usually quality seems better on Unior. I will say Unior still overprices some of their tools, and especially their repair stands.
@@dsdf_fdp1858 Sweet, Knipex pliers seem to be legendary; a ton of world cup mechanics use them. I have the Knipex VDE side cutters but I've yet to get their pliers. The VDE grips aren't needed for bike wrenching of course, but I've found them super comfortable and the quality is very high. And yea, Park Tool imo is very overrated nowadays. I swear a few years ago I remember their prices being reasonable, but the quality I've received from them recently is disappointing for how much they cost. They certainly do the job, but you can do better for cheaper. Now I pretty much only buy Unior or Pedro's for bike specific tools.

The link for purchase is dead. Where do I buy this set?
How much in the UK? And where can I buy it?
I'm wondering the same thing, but for Canada.. This is perfect for traveling.
