Strengths: This thing is great! I originally bought it to put a water bottle cage on but I have found MANY, MANY, MANY uses for this tool. To put it simply, get one, now. I have have been able to fix so many things on my bike.
Weaknesses: None, absolutly none.Bottom Line: Who should buy this? Anyone who has any mechanical apptitude.
Who should buy this? Anyone who is okay with bringing their bike into th shop to fix everything.
Another great product by Park tool. Buy it, now. Get off your lazy bum and buy it. Unless the store is closed then camp out in front.

Strengths: -excellent durability
-doesn't break if you drop it accidently
-can reach into the hard to get areas
-handy
-high tourqing strengthWeaknesses: (none)Bottom Line: Just buy it. You will not regret. Buy it for your bike shop or keep it in your emergency kit. The black paint may rub off, but who cares, as long as the metal is not worn out, it's good. It's very durable, and I mean it. I play around with those hex stuff A LOT and I used to have those crappy single black allen keys that rust before first time used. Anyone that owns a bike should get it. Most of the bolts on your bike are hex bolts, although some have gone into the Torx business.(wink, wink, knock, knock, nud.., nu...)
Park tools may be expensive but to tell you the truth it's worthwhile putting money into them. They last.
Tip: Don't loosen or tighten the bolt too much on the wrench or the two bolts will kind of wear off. Leave it at the setting when you got it. If you want to get the maximum torque set the wrench at 90 degrees. Just remember before you start wrenching check if the wrench is inside the bolt, or the bolt will strip off. (They are a bit tight at first when fitting the wrench into the bolt.)
