The best, like all Park Tools
1 of 1 found this helpful Park Tools makes regular tools, they just happen to be a cut above when it comes to quality and ergonomics. Whoever designs the tools at Park Tools obviously loves working on bikes, because these tools make that task a joy.

Great cheap stem
This stem is inexpensive and gets the job done. The finish is a little rough, but that shouldn't affect usability. The surface is not smooth enough to use for a carbon steerer tube or handlebars, but if you had those things you wouldn't be looking for a cheap stem.

Expensive, but well worth it over the 36t option
2 of 2 found this helpful The 54t star ratchet is not cheap, but when you consider the marked difference between this and the 36t star ratchet, and the cost of the 36t, this is worth the extra. The 54t ratchet rings are beautifully machined from high-quality metal, and hollowed-out to save a few grams. The end-result is 6.7 degrees between points of engagement. That's really small, and allows for much better performance over slow, technical climbs. This makes the 350 competitive with hubs costing 2-3x as much.
The 54t star ratchet can be installed without tools, and is a simple change that can even be done trail-side. This is also a nice reminder of the technical superiority of the ring drives that DT Swiss uses (Chris King hubs use a similar mechanism). No tiny pawls with individual springs to worry about, just two large, reliable coil springs. There is some chance that the 54t may be more fragile than the 18t or 32t star ratchet, but you can always carry the original star ratchet in your pack just in case (it's tiny and lightweight).
