Park Tool is the world's leading designer and manufacturer of bicycle maintenance equipment and repair tools. Founded in 1963 in Saint Paul, Minnesota, by Howard Hawkins and Art Engstrom, the company began when the duo built a hands-on bicycle repair stand out of scrap parts to meet the needs of their expanding retail bike shop. The design was patented, leading to the creation of the Park Tool Company, which has grown to produce hundreds of specialized tools used by professional cycling mechanics and enthusiasts worldwide.
Today, Park Tool remains an independently owned American business headquartered in Oakdale, Minnesota. A significant portion of its product catalog continues to be manufactured in the United States, while certain digital gauges, electronic items, and accessories are sourced from global manufacturing partners in Taiwan and other international hubs.
In the United Kingdom, Park Tool products are widely distributed across cycling shops, workshop centers, and online retailers through Madison (a division of H. Young Holdings plc), ensuring widespread access to their signature blue-handled bicycle tools.
