Bosch Blauw GLI 12V-300 LED Professional Light is the newest member of my Bosch Professional 12V family. Since there is no good review available online with some good quality pictures I’ve decided to purchase the light and craft a review myself. In this article I will cover the GLI 12V-300 LED design and compare it with the GLI VariLED and GLI PocketLED.

Peaty’s Holeshot Tubeless Puncture Plugger Kit
In this article I will review the Peaty’s Holeshot Tubeless Puncture Plugger Kit, which is packed in the Craft Cadence Essentials Case, but also sits in the saddle bags of both Scott Scale 925 mountain bike and Canyon Grizl CF SL 8 1-by gravel bike. If you are riding tubeless, than a plugger kit is a no-brainer.
Unior Tools Crowfoot 1725/2CF Open End Wrench for Shimano TL-FC41 Tool
In this article I will explain why I’ve purchased the Unior Tools Crowfoot 1725/2CF open end wrench in combination with the Shimano TL-FC41 Tool for Direct Mount Chainring. When you replace or change a direct mount chainring, this crowfoot from Unior Tools will help you torque the lock-ring to specification.
BSCTools Chain Breaker Tool review
In this article I will review the BSCTools Chain Breaker Tool, a high quality workshop-grade Chain Tool that is cleverly build with the BSCTools Screwdriver SDH-1 handle as the foundation. The BSCTools Chain Breaker Tool works with all Shimano, SRAM and Campagnolo chains (you can get an extra breaker pin for that).
Wera 950-9 Hex-Plus L-key set with holding function
In this article I will review the Wera 950-9 Hex-Plus L-Key set in BlackLaser finish and with holding function. I will compare it with the PB Swiss Tools 212LH-10 RB is PB Swiss Tools rainbow color coded hex key set that I’m using for 20+ years. I also use a set of Stahlwille hex key set (and Torcx key set).
Gedore Driving Handle 1/4″ Bitholder
In this article I will share brief thoughts on the Gedore Driving Handle with 1/4″ bit holder and product number 1649337. Gedore is a high quality German Engineering brand (just like Hazet and Stahlwille), that delivers excellent tools. The Gedore Driving Handle is in the category excellent value for money, and great for your toolbox that supports short cycling trip.
BSCTools Cable Poker Tool
In this article I will share my experience with the BSCTools Cable Poker Tool in combination with BSCTool Screwdriver SDH-1 handle. That removes the need of keeping a pointed spoke in a BERA CLIC+ Toolbox to open up a cable casing of a mechanical shift or brake outer cable. I will try to compare with the PB Swiss Tools Straight Picktool (that has a slightly different use case).
Wolf Tooth Pack Pliers review
In this article I will share my thoughts about the Wolf Tooth Pack Pliers or in other words Master Link Combo Pliers. For me it is a compact version of the BBB LinkFix BTL-77 pliers that will let you open or lock a Missing Link (KMC), Quick Link (Shimano) or Powerlock (SRAM). Wolf Tooth wouldn’t be Wolf Tooth if they didn’t put some additional innovation into the product.
Hazet 2162M Mini Grease Gun
In this article I will review the Hazet 2162M Mini Grease Gun that I have on my work bench since the early 2000’s. While it started to lubricate my Speedplay Zero Stainless pedals it has grown into an allround product that is helpful in many use case, where precision application is required.
Pedros Chain Checker Plus II
In this article I will show the design and capabilities of the Pedros Chain Checker Plus II which can do more than simply checking the wear of your chain. I will try to compare with the Park Tool CC-4 Chain Checker that lacks these additional capabilities.
