bike tools suggestion
We are statring a small bike workshop for the local yoofs in the Crawley area.
I’ve been looking around for a set of tools to get us going and getting a bit lost as to what to start with. Is Park Tool stuff really the best kit to go with? If so which set should I get? I think we’re going to go for 2 stands and 1 set of tools at the beginning.
We’re on a budget as it's a charity thing so we want to get as much as we can for as little as we can spend.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
