"Congratulations to User0023459876 a dedicated Pinkbike member since February 5, 2020!"

 @chacou: that would really throw a wrench in the works.

 As a "Junior" I think I have this "Unior" prize locked in. Inside track.

 @mikeyrides: Screw it, let's all just create ghost accounts and really ratchet up the competition. (only kidding, no creating any ghost accounts here)

 @bikingblake @chacou People don't actually do that. These contests, like all things in life are fair and balanced.

 @user43587: *reads username* ORLY?

 @user43587: "I wouldn’t mind winning" hahahaha

 @user43587: and you are memeber since 5th February 2020 ok ok

 @user43587: I think that also wins the unofficial pun contest.

 @user43587: the profile pic is perfect! This guy should win even if it is unfair.

 @bmar: No the perfect profile pic would be a screenshot of the prize....

 100% of the ones who won a loto once have played, remember that

 How many different people even visit Pinkbike? Five, six maybe? I mean, I am WAKI, Mike Levy, user43587, Sarah Moore, the dog Ezra, vinay... I'm winning loads of stuff each Christmas though I also often end up in quite disrespectful fights with myself. Glad it is all over the internet. Couldn't bear being close to all my alter egos all day.

 @vinay: Don't forget all the Australian accounts.

How can Jack Moir swap to Enduro if he's just an actor.
Think the Sam Hill win of the EWS last year was as close as a television final? It was.

 @vinay: Not to fear. Warren claims that she is going o make it a crime to lie on this Internet thing that Al Gore concocted.

 Thats a sweet set, Unior make brilliant tools, id love to win this.

 R&D: "It's got everything you'll ever need"
Guy in the back: "How 'bout a fork?"
R&D: "Well back to the drawing board it is."

 I am more of a soup guy, so it's a deal breaker for me.

 @PtDiddy: Go to Silca. They've got a new straw.

 @vinay: Living near an area where dolphin frequent - I keep one of the silly steel straws with me any time I am in the water. I understand straws are like kryptonite for such mamals.

 @RoadStain: it’s because dolphins have a horrible cocaine addiction, but they can only snort it when They get their fins on a straw.

 @PtDiddy: I was aware of their recreational drug use but wasn't aware of their part in the coke scene. All I knew was they're tripping on pufferfish to get their high. Must be the reason why we are seeing horses at the olympics but no dolphins, even though dolphins are known to be far more intelligent (when sober).

 @vinay: So long, thanks for all the fish........

 @dfbland If you win I'll include a fork. Promise.

 @uniorusa: If I win, I’ll bring the macaroni & cheese. Promise.

 @dfbland: Please include pulled pork.

 @uniorusa: DUDE! you just opened up the door to Flavour Town... I've got just the recipe brewing in the instapot.

 @dfbland: I sure hope this pork was free-range, vegan, non-GMO, locally sourced and cooked with solar power (not using Chinese made solar panels)

 @RoadStain: ... No... not even Gluten Free (Beer has been added).

 @uniorusa: I forgot about pulled pork. I’ll take the fork.

 Did I win?!... The pork mac & cheese is getting cold and eaten.

 Budget tools = shit tools (usually). I would say get yourself and empty tool box and start building a kit up with quality tools over time.

 Harborfreight.com for the tools and mcdonalds drive thru for the fork. This should all at up to about $60 depending on what meal you get at mcdonalds.

 Check Jenson and some of the online places - I think they have some pretty well-priced tool sets. If you are traveling, things happen, and if you have a budget toolset stolen or lost on your trip, that's better than having a $1k toolset stolen or lost ;-)

I was a mechanic at a shop for about 10 years, though, and that's when you really don't want crappy tools. As a guy who now just fixes my personal bike on an as-needed basis, though, I can make do with cheaper tools.

 @mat-massini-media: to you I would say "I've owned a set of allen's from a Sky City 20 years ago and not once have I been let down by them. I put it in the hole. I turn the wrench."

I also save tons of money by not even hesitating to drop my bike at the shop for all the crap that requires high end bike specific stuff like headsets & chasing threads so I can keep from destroying my bike b/c I am a HACK!

 Inspiration.

 The box by itself goes for 300, but pelican case, pedros, park tool and craftsman all make something similar. Shop around, a lot of times you can buy a pelican case with foam interior, cut out spots for your tools and then purchase add on flaps like the ones that hang down.

 I mean, it's not fancy, but I got myself the following this year from Chain Reaction:
X-Tools Essential Torque Wrench ($46CAD)
X-Tools Bike Tool Kit - 18 Piece ($53CAD)
X-Tools Pro Stainless Steel Hard Case ($31CAD)

I just like working on my bikes at home for fun, and to help friends modify/maintain their bikes. I always have my tools when I travel to ride downhill (closest mountain is 3.5 hours away). But for $130CAD, I'm pretty pleased.

My next purchases are going to be a headset/bottom bracket press (my bike has BB30 and a press-fit headset) and shock/frame bearing puller/press. I'll have everything after that.

 @pinhead907: is there a specific tool that you would never consider buying/ using if no name or cheap?

 @pakleni: I don't know if I'm an authority, but I'd say that torque wrenches might be worth spending money on. Also, cheap truing stands just plain suck. They true a wheel as well as an expensive one does, but if you've used a nice Park stand or something, it's torture to use a cheap one.

 @Ryan2949: closest mountain is 3.5 hours away? I am so sorry, buddy. Come out to Vancouver and bring your bike. (and your tools, come to think of it, my bike could use a little work)

 @atourgates We do offer a couple tool rolls, new for 2020. While you obviously can't fit as much in one as you can in our Pro Kit they're still a cost effective way to keep your tools organized. Check our site at uniorusa.com and browse to the "Bike Tool Kits" section in the shop.

 @GlazedHam The fork/toolbox photo was taken at Mont Sainte-Anne in 2018 when I went up to lend a hand to our Unior-Devinci Factory Racing Team. Since I was in Quebec I wanted an eating implement that would allow me to shove as much poutine down my throat as possible. A fork seemed a much better choice given that criteria.

 This is the way

 An empty plastic kitty litter box works great for my spare parts. Small parts go in the toolbox to avoid digging thru the bottom of the spares box for tiny bits. I can even fit some 203 rotors in on a good day.

 5 lb sledge?

 They had an article where they published all the winners a week or 3 ago. I'd look for it, but apparently we're both lazy.

 @noapathy: oh ok, thanks - i had a quick look. .. .. maybe it was too quick. .. ..

 Red is for USA, i believe Parktools have an exclusive right to blue bike tools in America

 @Kanta: I know. I don't know if PT copyrighted the color or if it's just a marketing strategy for avoiding confusion.

 It looks wrong but it fit better with Knipex pliers

 @StevenAnzel I can make things happen. If you win shoot me a reminder and I'll get you setup.
