Why Park Tool

Park Tool Co. is recognized around the world as the number one brand of bicycle tools. Here are some of the reasons why:

Bike Shop Heritage

The Park Tool Company started in the back of a bike shop. Each of the products we developed were designed to meet the needs of the professional mechanic. They were all tested and refined within the confines of a real working bike shop.   We have since moved out of the back of the shop, but our staff still has decades of shop experience to draw from when developing our current products for market.

44 Years of Experience

Not only does our considerable tenure provide us with many lessons on how to excel at our craft, it also provides a unique perspective. Every week we walk in to bike shops and see Park Tool repair stands and tools that have been in use for decades. Our goal is always to develop products that are worthy of this legacy.

The Professionals Choice

More bike shops use Park Tool products in their own service areas than any other brand. These are professionals who can use any tool they choose. Their livelihoods depend on quality tools and they choose Park Tool over and over again.

A Complete Line of Products

We manufacture the most complete line of bicycle tools on the market. (Over 300 tools in all.) From cleaning solutions to repair stands, we address every aspect of bicycle maintenance and service. This means that, for professionals and home mechanics alike, we are the one-stop-shop for your bicycle service needs.

American Quality

Over 80% of our items are made here in the United States. This allows us to monitor every step of the manufacturing process. We have implemented quality control checks throughout this process. That not only ensures a better quality product but also helps us to catch quality problems early, so we don't have to interrupt supply.

Commitment to Innovation

We are constantly monitoring new bicycle technologies and devising new and better ways to interact with them. In addition, we are always trying to make existing repairs easier or faster. We have introduced over 40 new products within the last two years. This allows our customers to work more effectively on their bicycles.
