 Make a million a two in your spare time! Sell your OEM toolkit to
generate much needed cash. Compare your toolkit to what SnapOn has
offered (http://buy.snapon.com/catalog/search.ASP?PartNo=CYCLESET1) and
you will see that your LoopFrame is simply a vintage cash cow!

Pay particular notice to how well the items listed by SnapOn are the
most useful for 99% of the bikes on the road....

I just thought I'd through some kindling on this thread :).

Once upon a time, I was a mechanic at a car dealership. I started with
Craftsman tools. Snapon tools were VERY expensive. The MAC tool guy also
came to the shop.

I occasionally borrowed some tools of varying brands from teamates in the
shop. IMO, Snapon tools are also far superior to most other brands. I
could mention some of the nit-picky differences for anyone who is happy to
argue.

I don't know how many times I've heard people say "Snapon? they're
ridiculous. Craftsman has liftetime garauntee - same tool!" - NOT

Are they worth the extra money?
For the amount I tool around today? definately not.
As a full time mechanic? most of the time, yes.
