Park Tool TL-6.2 Tire Lever Set

Much much much much better than the all plastic ones. Ive a road bike and some of three tires are insanely hard to put on. I had been breaking the plastic ones which would snap in half. Thanks love these.

No other levers give the confident to assemble tires.. Expensive, but worth...

Tire tools

Quite expensive for a Tire lever I cant use. They scratch up your rims, and when installing tight tires it is quite difficult to not puncture the tube with these. Better to go with a plastic one

I had some old tires on my bike that were laughing at the plastic tire tools from Wal-Mart. These are the real deal. If I ran a bike shop, Id get the longer fancier ones made by Park, but these are great for a serious biker who only changes a tire every day or two.

They dont bend like the plastic ones.

The tips are not covered so if you werent careful and using these a tires with inner tubes you may be able to cut the tube during the install

These are the strongest spoons I have ever wielded. I got to try out a pair at the shop & knew I had to carry these in my travel bag. A bit heavier than plastic levers, but wont split or crack when I try to install a cheap tire that is too tight for my rim. Versatile too: wash em with dishsoap and eat canned chili on the trail!

I have been a huge fan of Park tools for a VERY long time - at least 30 years, probably closer to 40. For a few years in college i was a mechanic in a local bike shop. I’ve found that despite the high price, their tools are usually worth the higher cost. I was quite shocked however, at these levers. Maybe I’m just completely missing something basic here, but these are incredibly bad! Not only did they severely scratch my black anodized rims, they also ripped the inner tube! Completely unusable. But take this with a grain of salt - most of the other reviews are excellent so this might just be operator stupidity (me). But even if that’s true, keep in my mind that i am a highly experienced mechanic - definitely not a novice. But they didn’t work at all for me…So watch out

For many years I tried to take bike Tires off without a bike lever and for a while that worked, I was able to get tires off without one. Then I realized, as I got older my hands got bigger and it became a lot trickier to get the tire off, sometimes resorting to a crowbar...(worst decision I ever made.) I was able to do it but it took me about five minutes. Then after purchasing the Park Tool 6.2 tire levers it really cut my time in half by about three minutes, so now it only takes me about two minutes to get a tire off. These really are the best on the market, you really can’t get a better product, these are solid steel with plastic molding to give it long lasting protection and these will not break. I love Park Tool, and I love their bike tool products they make the best in the industry and while the tools are expensive, they actually save money in the long run. With 85% of their tools being made in America and 25% overseas, really there quality tools that really do last. Plus, once you invest in these tools or invest in one of their many different toolkits like the AK-2, AK-3, PK-3 BMK-264 or MK-278 or in each tool individually etc, its money thats going to pay itself back down the road in the future.Never buy generic bike tools, that only costs you more down the road later. I highly recommend buying this product, you will not regret it.
