> 3 dayWay better than the tl6 they replaced. The tl6 was prone to failure from the plastic cladding delaminating from the steel core. These are perfect for keeping in your pack or strapped to your bike. Throw away the garbage plastic levers and buy these. Park still makes the best bike tools. They replaced my damaged tl6 levers with a new set of these. Great company.

> 3 dayBy far the best tire levers in existence. Worth the cost. They easily debeaded a tire that my LBS has a horrible time with using typical small plastic tire levers. These can get in and pull it over the rim without bending and snapping.

> 3 dayI have a tirenthat is a stubborn SOB. Its like it wanted to be a 650b instead of a 29er. I though Id need a metal reinforced lever for the task so I bought these and for Park Tools reputation. These seemed to want to peal the plastic coating off and simultaneously scratch my rim while scraping rubber off my tire at the bead. Although Im sure I could have gotten them to work, it was better to use the Gorilla Force all plastic levers I bought at the same time. These barely bent and didnt scratch, which was perfect.

Greater than one weekAwesome lever set. These are super strong, metal, levers with a nice plastic coating to protect those colored wheels. Great to throw in your camelbak or to even use in the garage. Highly recommended. 5 stars.

> 3 dayThe steel core gives them a solid feel but the steel protrusion to assist with the tire removal scratched my rim. Going back to full synthetic.

> 3 dayI had resigned myself to just bringing extra levers on my rides and expecting to break half of them on the first use. I was using the big thick plastic yellow ones belonging to that brand whose name you should vote for. Wink/nudge. As an act of desperation I also tried using smallish motorcycle spoon levers, and plastic-coated them with heatshrink. Bad idea. Too strong and too thick. These Park levers are metal that is *just* thick enough to not permanently bend (so far) and thin enough so they fit without gouging anything. They also are plastic coated with some thick material that is *just* thick enough to stay on without getting ruined during use. With tubeless-ready tires and rims fitting way tighter than back in the day, you need a serious lever that isnt so serious it tears and gouges its way to a seated bead. Im sold. Just ordered a second pair and will keep doing so until all my bikes slowly but surely have a pair of these in the tool kit.

Greater than one weekI get why folks like plastic levers to avoid scratching rims and all but I have broken many of them in a clutch situation. These seem a good compromise
