Very heavy and large bike tool kit with limited useful tools

Overview: **SRAMI 22-in-1 Bike Multi-Tool Set - Compact, lightweight multi-tool for road and mountain bike repairs - Handy set for saddlebag and Bag - Bag Included** I was excited to get this bike tool kit having recently lost the tool I carry in my MTB repair bag but after using this kit for a week I am very disappointed. I give my summary: Pros: - Good finishes and general appearance. - Convenient case for storing a tool kit. feels heavy. If you're a rider trying to minimize every gram on your bike (especially on a road bike) this would NOT be a good solution - a bunch of useless tools, or at least smaller ones. I don't need a bottle opener in my tool box, I don't need a nail puller, ruler or knife. Fairly large for a toolbox in a saddlebag. I have others that are half the size of this set and have the same number of useful tools (or even more). The choice of tools and dimensions are strange. It doesn't have the different size Allen keys I need for my Bianchi road bike, Norco MTB or my son's Orbea MTB. The spoke wrench sizes are odd, and they aren't positioned to actually adjust the spokes (the tool is at right angles to the spoke, making it very difficult to turn the spoke more than 75 degrees at a time). quality is questionable. I rode 13 km last weekend. Although I didn't use it on this trip, when I pulled it out of my backpack yesterday I found that one of the four screws holding the tools in the frame was missing. The photo shows that this renders the tool almost useless. I was really lucky and found a missing bolt today - it fell out of my saddlebag when I was unpacking and repacking the tool inside. While I was able to screw in the missing screw well enough to put it back together, I couldn't find a hex wrench in my kit that would fit the screw quite well. Overall, this toolbox looks good, but that's the only good thing about it. I will most likely throw this tool kit away or maybe leave it in the garage when I need a chain removal tool. Assuming it actually works the way it's supposed to. Unless you can confirm that the 3 sizes of hexes in this tool are sufficient, or you know that the other tools included meet your needs, I would stay away from this set. The cons far outweigh the pros, and there are much better tool kits that are smaller, lighter, and similarly priced ($20).

Pros
  • Cool product
Cons
  • Something different
