Whether you are a home, pro shop, or event mechanic, managing your tools can be a challenge, and keeping them portable is either essential or desired. Park Tool offers the BX-2 Blue Box Tool Case for all of these users, and virtually any mechanic who values flexibility and organization. While you can buy the Park EK-2 Professional Travel and Event Kit- an ably equipped tool set, which comes in the BX-2 Blue Box, many of you already have a comprehensive set of tools and simply need the best case. The BX-2 is your answer.

Park has built the durable, dent proof molded composite case with three key principles: useful and adequate storage of bike tools, flexibility of use, and overall secure storage. Starting with the last, the BX-2 features an anodized aluminum frame and key-locking latches for general security and stoutness. But secure storage really focuses on keeping your tools stable and safe during transportation. The removable interior tool boards feature an ABS inner panel, which is then covered with with tough 600D ballistic nylon, into which the actual tool organization is built. The panels add structure, but aren't completely rigid, offering variable compressibility and accommodation of tool distribution. Think of the case as a sandwich, with a series of layers. This keeps your case from rattling and potentially damaging tools during storage or travel.

The organization itself is geared towards a combination of specific bike tools and general use, though we have found the BX-2 can be used by any type of mechanic requiring such a case. You get 35 pockets and straps, plus four universal modules for more flexibility. The lower level of the case offers customizable tool or part storage with adjustable/removable partitions that allow for tremendous flexibility in set-up. The case design is oriented as if you were working out out of a briefcase. The lid is held in place, upright, but steel hinges. You get three layers to work with, with a beefy velcro strap that allows a two-sided partition for access from both sides. The front side is best selected to store tools you need more frequently, the opposite of the back side. Under the top of the lid (which is facing you, but behind the partition) there is considerable storage for other less frequently used tools.... Read More
