LIFU do a good quality one, th Park Tools one is great but VERY expensive.  Have a look on eBay there are usually a few places knocking out ones for arund the fifty quid mark whcih would serve the average home bike mechanic really well  :daumenhoch:

I got a SuperB tool kit Dave, it had most of what i needed, and then I just added other bits seperatley. It was cheap at about 30quid and does the job.

Id really like to invest in some real bike tools like the Park cup press / removal tools and a wheelbuild machine. Great kit but pricey! ;)
