Review on πŸ”§ Crankbrothers 17-Function Multi-Tool by Narendra Thapa

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Reliable and worth the small investment!

Got M19. So far I've used this tool multiple times on the trail in just a few weeks. Lies comfortably in the hands. I'm really impressed with how strong the circuit breaker is in such a compact size. I used one of the wrenches to break the spoke that broke at the nipple. A long process, but it works when you're away from your car or home. In this situation a file would be very useful for me. (And other possible scenarios) The file on my Gerber Dime was grossly inadequate, but for that reason I'm going back to my Leatherman Squirt. I just wish it had a bigger open end wrench for applications like pedals. But that is definitely not the decisive criterion. In my experience, a file and a pair of powerful pliers would be two additional features that would make this multi-tool almost perfect for mountain bikes. I would have given it 4.5 stars for weight and versatility but I couldn't. I don't know how to check half a star. I would definitely recommend it to any cyclist. BMX, MTB or road bike.

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • Nothing here
