Tool trio: Decathlon unveils three modular tool kits for bike maintenance

The three tool kits are designed for cyclists with varying needs when it comes to carrying out their own maintenance. Each set contains specific tools for particular tasks on the bike.

Starter Toolbox for Beginners

The ‘Start’ toolbox contains a pedal spanner, a chain gauge and two tyre levers for basic repairs. An L-shaped bit holder with bits in sizes PH1, PH2 and Torx T25 is included. The Allen keys cover the sizes 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 8 mm. Socket sockets in 8, 9, 13 and 15 mm complete the set for adjustment work on the bicycle.

Plus kit for the drivetrain and gearbox

The Toolbox Plus is designed for maintenance work on the drivetrain. Chain lock pliers, a chain tool and cable cutters for brake and gear cables enable the replacement of wear parts. An 8 mm Allen key with adapter, freewheel remover, cassette remover and chain whip are included in the set. The set is suitable for work on the chain, cassette and gear cables.

Ultim set for crankset and bottom bracket

The Ultim tool kit covers work on cranksets, bottom brackets, wheels and braking systems. Spoke wrenches, a crank puller and a bottom bracket tool enable repairs to key components. The set includes a Shimano crank tool, a bottom bracket spanner with two adaptors, a chainring spanner and a disc brake tool. Two hub spanners complete the set for work on wheels.
