Weighs a lot: Park’s latest digital bike scale has a capacity of 55 pounds, and reads in pounds or kilograms on an oversized digital display. In kilograms it measures and displays to .01kg (.01 kg = 10 grams). In the pounds mode the resolution is 1 oz. (1 oz. = 28.35g).

Its composite resin housing can be clamped in a bike stand or hung from a hook in the ceiling. Its two-prong hook is silicone coated to protect your bike’s finish.

The DS-1 has a tare function (to zero-out the weight of a container, if desired) and auto shut-off. Park extends a one-year warranty from date of purchase. Batteries are not included.
