I currently use both the park tool scales but they seem cheap and I doubt they are very accurate. Where can I get a better scale for weighing the bike and a small one for parts? Thanks!

Any scientiufic scales should do. Just because a scale is cheap just not mean it is not accurrate. Have you weighed a known mass on it yet, like 100 ml of water. You will need to measure the volume properly using a burette but that simple.

For small parts any LCD digital kitchen scale will work fine. Even the cheapest ones are surprisingly accurate, usually to within a gram or two. Mostly the accuracy is close to the unit increments displayed, e.g. if it measures in 2 gram increments it is probably accurate to within about 2g.

Bought this one a week ao two ago and it works perfectly. ~$17 shipped. 0.1 gram accuracy and up to 2kg. Perfect for ww stuff

For the small parts Ive always used this and has been consistently accurate and then some baggage scales for the bike as a whole if need be from amazon. Effectively an accurate set of kitchen scales will do for the small bits. I have used the park tools one and agree its not brilliant.

I work in a place with lots of often-calibrated scales. So I can compare my Park very easily. My Park has remained very accurate.

I call all these types of scales scienftific scales, probably wrongly.
