Review on πŸ”§ Flat-Faced Socket by Park Tool by Ayush Bonuccelli

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Gets the job done: bike tools and maintenance

Now I have three different sizes of these zero backlash heads, one from Abbey Bike Tools, one from Fox and one from Park Tool. The Park Tool pickup is fully functional, and if it's a little looser than the others, it's not by much. Of the three, my favorite is by far the socket wrench sold by Fox - it has the lowest profile so the ratchet attached to the head is vertically closer to the item being retrieved. This makes it easier to loosen or tighten suspension fork parts without damaging the paintwork. However, with a little care, any of these outlets work just fine, and the Park Tool outlet costs half as much as the others.

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Not sure
