BCR - The Cheapest Bike Tool Kit I’d Actually Trust (AliExpress)

AliExpress bike tools can be cheap, but that doesn’t mean they’re useless. In this video, I’m pricing and building a cheap, reliable home mechanic bike tool kit using tools from AliExpress.
Most of the tools shown here are new to me. A few are tools I’ve already used for years in a professional workshop, which I include for context and comparison.
This video is for home mechanics who want to work on their own bikes without wasting money on tools that don’t last.
What this video covers
What tools you actually need for a home bike workshop
Which cheap AliExpress tools make sense to buy
Where spending slightly more is worth it
Tools I already use long-term vs new additions
A realistic total cost for a usable starter kit
Who this is for
DIY riders maintaining their own bikes
Beginners building a first tool kit
Anyone trying to keep costs down without buying junk
This isn’t sponsored.
I bought these tools myself and I’m showing them exactly as they are.
