Hi, I'm Eric from Park Tool, and I'd like tell you about the EK-2 Professional Event and Travel Kit,
which is a great all-around kit, things are a little bit more compact,
all professional level tools, great for team mechanics, or if you're going to do service work,
neutral support at an event, or just as a really nice kit for your home.
So I'm going to start out telling you about the tools.
This is the HMR-4 - our hammer. A steel side and a composite side - a little bit softer.
Shop scissors - great for cutting zip-ties or cutting up tubes - just really versatile.
This is our RR-12, which is both a metric and a fractional tape measure.
Four different screwdrivers - two Phillips and two flat blades
Our shop cable cutters - the CN-10. Cuts cable and housing.
This is our heavy duty really nice 12" adjustable wrench. That's included.
This is our CT-3.2, which is our shop-level screw-type chain tool. Adjustable to just about any width chain.
Keeping on the chain tools, this is our MLP-1.2
which is great for both installing and removing master links.
This is our CC-3.2, which is a chain checker to tell if your chain is worn out or not,
or wearing out, to save your drivetrain.
Five different cone wrench combinations, so you should be able to work on just about any hub
Not a lot of threaded headsets anymore, but we give you a wrench just in case you're at
an event and you run across threaded headsets - 32mm and 36mm.
Moving down this way, this is our GSC-1 GearClean Brush, which is both a brush on one end and
a comb on the other side to fit in between sprockets on the rear.
One of the most important tools at any event is a bottle opener, so we include one of those.
8, 9, and 10mm combination wrenches for a huge variety of things, mostly on older bikes.
Three different sized spoke wrenches - these are the most common sized spoke wrenches.
TL-6.2 - these are our steel core tire levers, covered in a composite so they're very strong
yet they'll glide along any rim - anodized rim, painted rim - they won't scratch up the surface
but they're great for tubeless tires or any tire for that matter.
On to the bottom bracket tools - this is a BBT-9 for external bearing bottom brackets.
This is for cartridge bottom brackets - BBT-32.
Over here we have a crank tool. It's a combination 14mm and 8mm to fit a lot of three-piece cranks.
This is one of our most famous tools - the AWS-1 4, 5, & 6mm hex wrench set.
Lot of leverage, really nice and easy to use.
You also get this set of hex wrenches which is 1½ to 10mm - a ball driver on one end
and a flat hex on the other end in an L shape.
Also in an L shape is a full set of Torx-compatible wrenches.
This is an 8mm crank wrench or pedal wrench
so you just need a lot of leverage, we give you a really nice big tool.
This is one of our newest tools, the ATD-1 Adjustable Torque Driver.
It comes with a variety of bits but it's adjustable from four to six Newton meters
in half-Newton meter increments. All-metal internals, shop-level tool. That's a great tool.
This is another crank tool here - it's a crank puller.
Works on both square tapered three-piece cranks and splined three-piece cranks.
Our PW-4 - just a gigantic pedal wrench
to break those rusty or stuck pedals loose and to tighten them up as well.
This is our cassette pliers - so you use this just like you would a chain whip,
except you just grab right onto both sides of the rear cassette
and then use it in conjunction with the FR-5H for most lockrings - Shimano-compatible lockrings.
You're going to hold it with this and you're going to take off the lockring with that.
Also there's the CNW-2, which is the chainring nut wrench, which you use on the backside
to hold it while you tighten or loosen with a hex wrench on the other side.
Also included with this set is our BX-2 blue box, which is a fabulous toolkit box.
TSA locks on it, there's pallets on the inside, there's a home for everything you see in this kit
plus room for more things. Super tough, and it's blue.
You will find this box, and this set, in professional pits all over the world.
So there you have it - that's our EK-2. A perfect kit for professional mechanics, home mechanics,
if you're doing events, or if you're a team mechanic.
All of this comes in this box, it's a great set. Thank you.
