Chongo Loco Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Just saw this one from Wolf Tooth for $40. Looks like it has good leverage, 8mm, and 2 sizes of torx head. https://www.wolftoothcomponents.com/collections/tools/products/6-bit-hex-wrench-multi-tool?variant=39581096345635 For $70 there’s a version with built in quick link pliers, valve tools, and quick link holder https://www.wolftoothcomponents.com/products/8-bitpack-pliers the second might be my new packless riding tool! Usually just have a CO2 and carts held together with a chunk of old tube like a fat rubber band. Always ends up poking me when I try to squeeze in a multi tool. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AustinBike Posted April 9, 2022 Author Share Posted April 9, 2022 That is REALLY sweet, may pick one of those up. I realized that my old rusty Topeak Alien would work on that one bolt that was in the linkage connector. Swapped out the Crank Brothers for the heavier Alien for now. I like the idea of this one. I already have a pair of these in my pack: https://www.amazon.com/Tire-Pliers-QuickLink-Accessories-Engineering/dp/B074KN7YHP/ref=sr_1_53?crid=A356S4D9F7JH&keywords=master+link+pliers&qid=1649508379&sprefix=master+link+pliers%2Caps%2C140&sr=8-53 The only hesitation on the wolf tooth may be the bits. If you lose one you're screwed so I would want to see how well the tool snaps shut and stays shut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AntonioGG Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 This looks really cool: https://www.blackburndesign.com/p/wayside-bike-multi-tool/350160000100000010.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems I read on the non-pliers one the keychain doohickey locks the cover closed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AustinBike Posted April 10, 2022 Author Share Posted April 10, 2022 Yes, the video shows that the keychain locks it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
