Title: what's in the tool bag?
Post by TZK on 12/07/21 at 02:05:48

The used S40 that I recently purchased didn't come with a tool bag. I can either order one for ~$35 US or put one together. Is there anything unique to the tools in the S40 bag that I wouldn't be able to get at Lowes?

The only thing unique is the worthless belt tension tool that should not be used.

I don't know about the other stuff - so far all my maintenance and repairs have been done at home, and I just go to my toolbox for the stuff I need. The 24mm axle nut wrench would be huge if you bought it at Lowe's.

First thing I do when I get a new bike is remove the tool kit. It's 1 to 2 pounds of junk that I don't need to give a free ride to.

Do you still have your toolkit from the S40?

Thanks, guys for the quick replies!

Any of you willing to sell your tool bag? I know the tools are poor quality but they'll do in an emergency. FYI, when going on a long trip I also make sure to pack the Cruz Tools Outback'r and 3 Way Socket Wrench.

Thanks for the link on the Cruz Tools. Looks like a lot of tool power in a super-small package. How tough are they?

Hey Gary, my Savage left me high & dry a couple weeks back. Dead as a doornail on the side of a country road. Nothin but blazin hot sun, no shade, lots of dust, and zero tools. It sucked. Set me back $200 bucks and a long wait for a tow. I've since started packin tools. :'(

They're very good quality but the Outback'r is a little difficult to use. The 3 way wrench is very handy.

BTW, just to be clear, I'm willing to pay for the S40 tool bag if you're willing to sell it.
