I found these tools in a box during the process of setting up a community bicycle repair shop.

I’m not sure of their purpose and hoping that you folks would be able to identify them for me please.

2 looks like a Delta Hubloc antitheft skewer tool & 3 looks like it might be one of the Mavic many sizes of nipple wrench. Thanks for working on the community repair shop, it is rewarding work.

Out of curiosity I looked up the Filzer name on item #1 and only found a possibility of a similar current item which is from a pannier rack hardware kit. Maybe yours is just an out of production piece. Slider Front Pannier Rack Parts Kit - Products - Filzer

pry bar, creative pry bar, leverage pry bar?

...I concur that the middle one is some sort of theft proof QR skewer tool.
And the one on the far right make me think spoke wrench, although I'm not sure why.

I am a rich source for inspirational stories about the bike co-op here. Just let me know if you need any.

Thank you folks, that does help.

yes, volunteering at a community bike shop is rewarding…until you have to remove a stuck seat post which only took me 3 hours yesterday….nearly killed me.

Out local counselor donated $1,000 a few weeks ago and I bought a crap ton of new tools, damn that was fun.

The middle one can double as a "snuff" spoon.

That holds no where NEAR enough.

I concur that #1 is a bike thing, based on the name. However, the two holes are not quite the same. I also concur that #2 is an anti-tamper wrench. #3 could be a spoke tool, based on the size and open-ended design of the working end. #3 also has a curiously precise stain tracing the tool that suggests it might have been overmolded at some point?

Could #3 be a saddle tension wrench?

gearbasher

Looks like he called the Mavic one. Six spline spoke wrench?
Here's a VAR version:

we//, they're def too light weight for being a hammer.

Apologies, I thought I responded to ‘gearbashers’ comment about the middle one looking like a snuff spoon. I was high and didn’t have my spectacles on.

So, let’s just back up and do this all again, shall we?

Where is this shop at?

digger Take a look at this thread, maybe some interets? https://www.bikeforums.net/charity-e...ity-shops.html

It is in a very rural location - Ship Harbour, NS….Canada.

They have many projects underway but the shop itself is called The Bike Hub.

Thank you, this is a good website.

I started working at this community bike shop when I retired in August.
the 30 bikes they had were left outside unused for 3-4 years and most were toasted (department store bikes) I went through them picked out what was salvageable by way of parts and some bikes that were repairable.
I tossed the rest in a large trailer to be hauled away for recycling.
I do have tubes and grips coming out the ying-yang but I do need chains, rim strips, shifter cables and shifter housing.

Honestly, unless the bike is something really (really, really, really) special, just scrap bikes with stuck seat posts. Strip off what is useable and send the rest to recycling. It’s not worth the effort and you could spend your time working on something more productive. I know it hurts to do that but 3 hours is about the time needed to referb 2 other bikes.

It was a small Diamond Back late 80s early 90s(?) frame - double-butted chromoly tubing with a mix of XT and Deore components, aluminum seat post and handlebar with thumb shifters, aluminum chain rings, etc. We do not have many bikes this small so I wanted to save it...plus I was getting pissy and that mofo was coming out. A lot of that 3 hours was shooting in penetrating fluid, letting it soak, banging the post with a hammer, turning it upside down in a vice and twisting and then repeat.

As I posted above, I tossed about 30 bikes after stripping parts I wanted as they were department store bikes - frozen chains, stuck seatposts, frozen derailleurs, etc. All the parts on this DB bike worked well (limit screws rusted a tad) and mid-range components.

The seat post will be interred tomorrow morning with full military honours...or honors if you're American.

Always wanted to visit that part of Canada, Let us know if we can help.
