Park Tool Shop Rag header

New tool alert! Join Park Tool President and Chief Mechanic Eric Hawkins and Technical Expert Truman Purdy as they cover the latest gear from Park Tool and keep you up-to-date with everything new in blue. In this Episode we introduce a bevy of new bottom bracket tools, an all new bottom bracket retaining system, a fresh take on our Team Issue Repair Stand, and more. It’s not just new tools, though — Eric is joined by Director of Education Calvin Jones to talk bout Park Tool’s history of teaching and educating people about all things bike repair. From books to the early days of the web to YouTube, there is a lot of interesting history to get through.
