Park Tool Tire Lever Set

(discontinued)

Initial Impressions

I already had some tire levers that have my go to for years. I was a few dollars short of free shipping on Jenson and found these.  They were the perfect price to get me the free shipping.  I would suggest them as an add on the next time your cart is just under $50.

Function

Like many tire levers, these click together for easy storage, so you don't loose one.  I have enjoyed their squared off shape in contrast to the traditional rounded style I have been used to.  They are light and more compact than my other set which earned them a spot in my backpack.  They get a good grab under the tire, and they slice through dried sealant very well.  I run Maxxis Minion tires on Spank rims.  It is a pretty combo to work on.  I cannot comment on how they work with more difficult tires and rims.  If my tires were harder to work on, I would want something with a longer profile.

Durability

I have had this set for a few months now and have had the opportunity to use them on the trail.  The blue plastic has kept its color well and they are in great shape.
