Pedro’s Tools

Pedro had 2 new tools that I thought were pretty cool. The first tool is their Vise Whip, and it replaces your old chain whip tool. It is the worlds first locking chain whip, much like a set of Vise grips with a small groove cut in the vises teeth for the cog’s teeth to fit in. I played around with it on their tool bench, and it was pretty sweet.
The second tool was their Demi-Torque wrench. It is a micrometer styled torque wrench for 3-15 Nm adjustments.

I think the vice grip tool is awesome. If you currently have a chainwhip you probably won’t buy it but I’m just putting together my tool kit and guess what I’m buyin’ it. eff a chainwhip

[...] Cool Tools Park and Pedro’s had some very nice new tools on the market this year, but two of them are interesting enough to place as a tie for tools that I covet. Those tools are the Pedro’s Vise Whip [...]
