Wera 05004016001 8100 SA 6 Zyklop Metric Speed Ratchet Set, 28 Piece, 1/4" Drive

This is the most well thought out set I have ever purchased. I ride dual sports and enduro, wherever I go this is either in my tail bag or backpack. I’ve almost had this set for a year and I exclusively use it for bike maintenance and trail side fixes.The kit is well organized, everything snaps positively in place and the elastic holds everything well. I have never found anything loose in the case from riding rocky terrain or rough roads in a tail bag.The ratchet is great, can act as a screw driver or regular ratchet. Extensions work great for getting to hard to reach places. The wobble extension works fine but I’d rather have a universal joint and instead of the wobble extension just a regular extension would be fine.If you’re on the fence BUY IT NOW. Easily the best purchase I’ve made, and I would definitely get it over the Tool Check Plus. I recommend it to everyone I ride with.

It really is hard to go wrong with Wera. Expensive, but worth it. Life is too short to use cheap tools.

Simply outstanding. I keep this perfect set of tools nearby at all times. I don't think you'll find more functionality and value in a smaller package, other than perhaps your smartphone! No detail was overlooked in their design. These are some high quality tools.

This review is for the Wera Zyklop 1/4 inch flex head ratchet. This comes as a kit with sockets and bits. I have several other 1/4 inch flex head ratchets which lack most of the features of the Wera and are too small (see photo 3). I have large hands (athritic) and have a difficult time manipulating small tools. The sockets appear to be 6 point flank drive sockets. All parts of this kit are well finished. In general I prefer metal tool cases. This has a cloth type tool roll with rigid inserts to hold the square shape. It securely keeps all the tools in place and is very well made. The tool roll has a Velcro strip on the back for securing the tool roll for storage. This does have a button to release a socket, which many new ratchets do not have.I do mostly handy man type work and I like how this keeps most of the small bits for fasteners in one tool roll. While this kit has 15 different bits it is missing a few that I commonly use like square and blade bits. This tool kit is expensive but it is by far the best 1/4 inch flex head ratchet I have seen. My previous ratchets were too small and did not have a way to lock the angle.The reenforced tool roll came in a nice cardboard box with slide on lid (see photo 5). The tool roll is labled with a rubber replica of the ratchet. Most tools only come in a cheap plastic bag or hard shell plastic cover.I thought this tool was made in Germany but to my surprise I see it is made in the Czech Rep.

Product is well made and precise. Best I’ve seen in this category. Perfect to transport. However - Had issues still unresolved. This is the second time I received this product. First time the set was missing two parts a socket and the bit holder. Incomplete. Drove to town to return it. Second time the same product was sent with inch SAE sockets - NOT Metric as the order, posting, and box indicated. Another trip into town and more wasted time. Excellent product. But very poor service. Whoever is shipping this product needs to take the time to check what is being sent. I’ve ordered a third time. We’ll see what arrives. Meanwhile I’m wasting time and fuel being the return to the drop off. Amazon rep, “Precious” had little empathy, or interest in my experience and seemed to just want to end the call saying there was nothing she could do. Just return it and reorder. Rep should have offered a discount or gift card to comp me for the trouble. Or at the very least act like my needs are important.

Great tools! Design is good as well. Ratchet is smooth. Bits have no issue. Eveything is superb. Hope that Wera make these Zyklop ratchets serviceable though.

Super nice tool and great assortment, I did end up returning it because there is no flathead bit! Very strange it has basically everything else you need to keep in a car and have a good kit but is missing that one super common bit.I ended up buying a Wera 004284 that has a wider range of sockets and a bunch of bits in the handle. I sure hope a flathead is one of them but can't tell based on their listing description or photos.
