Park Tool UP-SET Utility Pick Set

Park Tool UP-SET Utility Pick Set

One of the first time-savers they invented was a stand that held the bike off the ground allowing easy, back saving access to any part of the bike. This original stand was put together using legs from a dining room table, an empty shell casing and a truck axle from a 37 Ford. As other shops, and eventually Schwinn Bicycle Company, saw the stand in action, requests were made for a production model. Park Tool Company was born!

The line grew quickly to include a wheel truing stand, more repair stands including a double arm shop version, wrenches gauges, fixtures and consumer tools soon joined the company's offerings. The retail side of the business also grew earning Top Ten Schwinn dealer status fifteen years in a row including number one overall in 1977. In the early 1980s all three retail shops were sold to concentrate on the tool business.

Park Tool UP-SET Utility Pick Set

The Park Tool UP-SET is a set of three unique multi-purpose picks ideal for a wide variety of fine detail work performed on a bicycle, including removing O-rings and bearing seals, opening up pinched housing, and other scenarios where no other tool will do.

The UP-SET includes a straight, hooked and 90 degree pick, so you always have the right pick for the job.

The base of each anodized aluminum handle features a strong magnet, useful for retrieving and removing small items such as ball bearings, washers or fasteners, or for storing the picks on a repair stand or metal tool board.

Each pick is replaceable, cold formed, heat treated and polished high carbon steel.
