Review on πŸ”§ Prestacycle Prestaratchet: Advanced Cycling Tool for Quick and Easy Repairs by David Sanchez

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The ratchet is fantastic, the bits are lacking

I originally saw this in a dropper arm installation video where it was used around the seat post. I checked it out and was intrigued as it seemed perfect for some limited bike space and seemed fantastic for the price. I'm not here to say it isn't because the ratchet is great, I've used it on my seat, calipers, brake levers and dropper arm before. However, I got a few "bad beats". A 3mm hex (which is rarely used on my bike) and a 25 torx (e.g. SRAM) are slightly different and I'm afraid using either makes removing the bolts easier so I'll have to find others , which I can fit into the toolbox. Still a great little tool that you might not necessarily need, but great to have on hand. I only had to deduct a star for a couple of attachments I use on my bike that are completely useless.

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • Unreliable
