Bike Repair Stand Review: Park Tool PCS-9.3
Your b-roll stock videos are a bit 'off', sometimes 🤣
You’re probably right!
Once you have your ride on your Garmin how do you actually get it to start to navigate the ride you want where it’s promoting you to turn left right etc…
Yeah you need to follow a couple of steps to get the Route going. I laid it out here for you! 1. Turn device on and go to Menu. 2. Navigation -> Courses. 3. Find the Course you added in. 4. Select the Course and Click Ride!
What if someone fihures out a way to automatically and intelligently suggest new changes to OSM based on Google maps? So that OSM misses nothing? I can see a future when both would have the same roads if they collaborate, but Google is a corporation and OSM is an open source project, so some legalities might not go right either way
The problem are licenses. If Google notices somebody uses their data without paying monthly fees, they can sue the hell out of the contributor. You might want to check out Overture Maps, so far it’s pretty promising and tries to be a middle ground between Google maps and OSM. It’s not live yet though.
Yeah I think the attribution requirements for both companies is the limiting factor, but that does seem like the best approach. Oh well, Google Maps is great for driving and Outdoor apps are great for hiking + cycling!
Very well done. Thanks! I was thinking about doing all the exploration of the formats and experimenting myself to figure out the details. But you saved me hours of work!!
Thank you! I am happy you got something useful out of it!
Excellent overview of these file types, and putting them in the context of when they were developed helped my understanding. The other unique thing about .fit files is I think they are the only type that can hold multiple sporting types in a single file. For example a single .fit file could hold an entire triathlon, with subsections for swimming, running and biking. Thanks again for a very useful video.
Thank you for the kind words, I’m glad someone else finds file types interesting too!
Holy Cow, what a cool set of rides
Thanks! Lots of cows out there.

@@JoseEduardo-rw2rh love it!
You do know there is a RWGPS app on Connect IQ? IMO from a user experience perspective (especially compared to Wahoo where the workflow is pin a route and turn your Wahoo head unit on and you're done) it's still a convoluted process, and unlike the Wahoo... forget about grabbing and updated map in the middle of a ride (didn't have signal at the start... thought I had the map but Garmin lied about that).
BMO is a brutal course
Agreed. It’s hard but scenic!
Check out Duratech 41 piece. Its better priced and also made in taiwan.
Thanks for the beta!!
Happy to help!
Great job on this video. Thanks for the breakdown. I had a general idea of the differences, but nothing like the depth you went into here. I have a big multi-day ride coming up, and the organizers sent a link to the route/track/course on Ride with GPS, which made me wonder enough about the file types to look for an explanation.
Thank you! I am glad it was useful, specifically for a cycling context. Good luck on your ride!
I made my own. My exercise bike backs on to a white wall. I put a horizontal strip of wood on the wall well above head height. I then made a drop down table on a hinge with the hinge at desk height behind me. When I’m cycling plenty room for laptop and drink and phone. I fit inside it a bit like a baby high chair for feeding. When not using it it swings up and clips on to the bracket in a second. Cost me the price of two small hinges and some paint as I upcycled a pallet. Works a dream as custom fit. I have it in my home gym (garage) and use it for zoom meetings and linking work for an hour a day. So I wear a shirt and shorts and nobody knows for gentle cycling. Took me two hours to make and takes up no room. I use a 3d headset for immersive indoor rides with holofit and the desk is handy for a drink and to put the headset on for a break. For watching tv or youtube I have a large tv and apple tv that’s also used to mirror my screen for large spreadsheets. That tv is in a bracket so I can angle it for each bit of gym equipment.
Well done on the homemade setup! Seems like you got it dialed.
Let’s gooooo🎉
This is good mental preparation for my first BMO full marathon. Keep it up!!
Thank you, good luck with it! Run hard.
heyy I'm running that too tomorrow! Also my first!
Hope it went well!
I'm about to run my first Vancouver marathon and this video helped me get a good idea of how much I should expect to suffer lol. Good stuff
Hey good luck and thank you! I am sure you won’t have as tough of a time as I did.
The video was well-made for an introduction. It's fascinating to witness electronics holding up after 200K. I'm also considering joining Randonneurs. Please share other brevets that you've challenged. Good Luck
Thanks for the note! I want to do some longer longs so perhaps I will film those as well too.
Solid effort. I saw your time, and I ran it in 3:40 and wondered if I was at the finish line when you were and as I was thinking that saw myself walk behind you at 10:54 in the blue shirt and black tights.
Yeah that’s you I guess! Nice work, are you running another marathon?
😎 Promo*SM
Agreed!
By far the most helpful video on the subject I have found in months of trying to get my Garmin Explore 2 to work (no help from the shop I bought it at). Thank you!
I appreciate the kind words!
could have been worse, at least you didnt ask him to smack her butt for you!
If you are buying tools for work solely on your own bike, then it is your decision what tools you will use. If you are using the tools for a job repairing other people's bikes on a paid basis, if you damage customer's bikes because of poor tool purchases, eventually you will pay for this one way or another.
Agreed!
That price was shocking. I'm guessing this is Canadian Dollars? I bought the same stand and retail price in the US was $199. For the price, I think it's a great work stand. Very stable.
Yeah it is in CAD. Yeah it is for sure quite expensive, but overall pretty stable. Happy with my purchase at this point.
Finally an easy to follow video on this! Thanks
Glad it was helpful!

Great video!
I crashed hard headfirst on my road bike wearing an MET rivale helmet that was 2 years after its expiration date and it was totally destroyed…….but I lived so I feel no need to replace mine that soon if kept in good condition
Wow glad you’re okay! Thanks for sharing.
Nice shoes! Also no free shoutouts. @cliffbars, send the man a box of bars already!

I’m still trying to do unnecessary mountain
I recommend it! You can do it!
I have two rules. 1. Never buy from Amazon. 2. Follow rule 1.
Park tool for me all I can get from my bike shop
Think I got the same kit for under 100 on Jenson. Love to hate them but it works wonders.
Park Tool is professional quality, where the Amazon kit is setup for personal use. Like all tools homeowner and commercial use. No comparison.
Bike hand YC-748 👍👍👍
Would this not be a “Bikehand” vs “Park Tool” comparison? Other than ordering off Amazon it has nothing more to do with Amazon.
THERE S ALWAYS A CHEAPER OPTION some good some bad some ok for when you need it . l ve bought what l needed most on at a time park tools mostly but all my regular tools are mastercraft from CT which comes with a lifetime warranty too .l have used them as a mechanic for yrs with no issues :) I THINK THIS WILL DO FOR US REGULAR CYCLISTS just upgrade whatever breaks
Thanks for the mechanic insight!
Had to break out the cowboy hat for this 🔥🔥
I’ve bought all kinds of tools over the years. I have the bike hand disc brake tool in this video. It’s just as good as any others. If you’re going by more expensive bike specific tools I suggest ethier unior or abbey tools VS park. For more high end tools that aren’t bike specific like Allen keys wera or Klein I suggest. Bike hand tools are pretty solid and for most part I’d buy them over park if I had to chose between those 2 brands
Thanks for the insight and detail.
Blah blah blah
You forgot pro bike tool
Well of course you can buy cheap tools and get angry every single time you use them because they either break, destroys the bike and the ergonomics isn’t always very nice. I’m using Park tool at work which is fine and they do the job. But at home I’m using a variety of tools such as Abbey bike tools, Silca, Wera, Knipex, Wolftooth components and a few from Park tool as well. For me wrenching on the bike is as much of my hobby as riding the bike so it should be a joy to do it which in my opinion requires nice tools.
Those are some great brands. I really admire Wolftooth Components products!
Park Tools are good, but not that good. A lot of the tools needed for bikes aren't bike specific, such as the torx, hex, screwdrivers, ratchets, etc... Many tools like the cassette and BB wrench have a socket as alternative. Get those tools from some better brand and you'll pay about the same for better quality. The most important ones I have are: - Hex by PB Swiss - Torx by Wiha - Small precision hex/torx by Wiha Picofinish - Cable cutter by Knipex - Ratchet for the sockets by Hazet - Open-end/box-end wrenches by Gedore (blue) - Bitset by Bosch (blue) - Ratchet bitdriver by Milwaukee
I'm a car mechanic and we laugh at everyone with snap on tool box. Same thing with park tool. They are just regular tools (some snap on are very bad quality) terribly overpriced and park tool also make regular tools but are terribly overpriced. These companies made so much money because of idiots. 80% of the population are total imbeciles.
I own a bike repair shop, started with low budget and cheap tools, it takes 6 months to replace my cheap Chinese tool straight to the top of the food chain tool such as pb swiss, knipex , Wera, Wiha, snap on, vampire tools. If I want to suggest, they’re some tools that needs high precision and high load that you really need to invest on a good ones, Hex/torx key (pb swiss) Chain cutter (topeak) Cable cutter (knipex) Screw drivers (pb swiss) Crank puller (park tool) Cone wrench (park tool) Rachet wrench ( Craftsman) Bb, cassette, freewheel sockets (park tool)
Park tools. For sure.
Great review... thanks... I have a wide assortment of Park tools and Bike Hand tools... Bike Hand quality is usually pretty good and a lot cheaper...
I started with a cheap kit, but when the regularly used tools broke or wore out, I replaced with a higher brand. If you maintain more than one bike, go with the higher end brand. I don't believe just looking at a tool will tell you it's quality
I agree that frequency of use is a key factor for tool quality that was not well addressed in this comparison. Thanks!
Most of the Bike Hand tools look decidedly inferior to the Park tools. They should be fine for consumer use, where the user might only use any tool a few times over its life. I can't imagine they would hold up under shop use. I have a wide variety of bike tools that I have accumulated over 50 years, including lots of Park and Campagnolo, and I have no problem using low-price tools of decent quality. However, there are some tools, like the cable cutters, where a good tool, like Hozan's, can bring a smile to your face, while a cheap, stamped version, like the Bike Hand, can be a lesson in frustration. BTW, the Park chain stretch gauge that was shown works differently than the one in the Bike Hand kit. I have seen Park versions of that one, as well, but the design of the Park style shown yields more accurate results, as it measures the chain in the way it is loaded in use.
A lot of the time you're simply not comparing like with like, e.g. the FRW-1 freewheel remover wrench from Park that you show is a massive heavy-duty pro workshop tool designed for holding and driving different tools with a 1" hex drive - it doesn't even come with a freewheel remover tool, it's simply a driver handle. The Park PW-4 pedal wrench you show is the most expensive pro workshop option - Park also make a PW-5 home mechanic pedal wrench which is much cheaper and a more reasonable comparison. I'm not a Park Tool completist by any means, but I do work part-time in a bike workshop, and I know that some tools are pro quality and made to last and some just aren't. Just look at the difference between the Bike Hand cable cutter and the Park ones, for example - the Bike Hand cutters are made in China from cheap stamped steel, probably not even hardened, and the Park Tool cutters are made in the USA, properly forged, hardened and ground, with a lifetime guarantee. If you cut some cables with each of them, you would immediately know the difference. Do the Park cable cutters lost a lot more? Yes, of course they do. Are they worth it? That depends how many cables you need to cut, but the Bike Hand ones wouldn't last very long in a bike workshop.
I appreciate the call out there on the different demands between a workshop and a home mechanic. While this video has some interesting comparisons, I do wish I had dug deeper into the different options park tool offers within their categories. Thanks for sharing the feedback!
