Cheap bike tool kits off ebay
Recently I have been wasting alot of my free time playing with, and building and taking apart bikes. I have come to accept that if I really want to build bikes, an allen set and some cable cutters isnt enough.
That being said I just don't have the 200+ dollars to blow on a fancy park tool kit. I was looking on ebay and theres a bunch of different super bargain bike tool kit options. Does anyone have any experience with these? Are they complete crap or or the tools going to last long enough to justify their purchase?

the nashbar kit is decent.
the best way to go about it is to buy what you need, instead of buying a kit that has many items that aren't required for a few bikes.
a set of cone wrenches, for instance, is not enough. you need some duplicate sizes, while other sizes just aren't needed at all for 2~3 bikes.
